3004 aluminum plate material properties
As an AL-Mn alloy, 3004 is not high in strength (slightly higher than 1000 series industrial pure aluminum) and cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. Its mechanical properties can be improved through cold working methods.
It has high plasticity in the annealed state, good plasticity in semi-cold work hardening, low plasticity in cold work hardening, good corrosion resistance, good weldability, and poor machinability.

Advantages of 3004 aluminum sheet
Aluminum alloy 3004 has many advantages and has many applications in multiple scenarios.
1. Corrosion resistance: 3004 aluminum alloy has excellent corrosion resistance, which can prevent rust and degradation, and the corrosion resistance will be better after the surface is treated with coating.
2. Formability: 3004 aluminum sheet has good formability and can be easily processed into various shapes without cracking or weakening. Can make beverage cans, car parts, and kitchen utensils.
3. Higher strength: 3004 aluminum sheet is weaker than other aluminum alloys such as 6061 or 7075, but 3004 aluminum plate has sufficient strength and can be used for lightweight structural components and panels.
4. Light weight and small weight: The density of aluminum plate is small, and the overall weight is much lighter. The low density of 3004 makes it an application where weight reduction is a priority, such as the automotive and aerospace industries.
5. Heat resistance: 3004 aluminum sheet has good heat resistance and maintains structural integrity at high temperatures without significant deformation or weakening.
These advantages make 3004 aluminum sheet a versatile material suitable for a wide range of applications, including automotive parts, food and beverage packaging, construction materials, kitchenware, and more.
