Chemical Composition of 3004 Aluminum
3004 aluminum is primarily alloyed with manganese and magnesium. The following composition is provided as a general reference; actual material chemistry should be confirmed by the applicable specification and material certificate.
| Element | Mn | Mg | Fe | Si | Cu | Zn | Al |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3004 | 1.0-1.5% | 0.8-1.3% | ≤0.7% | ≤0.3% | ≤0.25% | ≤0.25% | Balance |
3004-H19 Mechanical Properties
Mechanical properties of 3004-H19 aluminum coil depend on product thickness, manufacturing condition and applicable specification. H19 is selected when higher strength is required compared with softer 3004 tempers.
| Property | Supply Consideration |
|---|---|
| Tensile Strength | According to ASTM B209/B209M and ordered thickness |
| Yield Strength | Depends on H19 condition and product gauge |
| Elongation | Depends on thickness and test orientation |
| Temper | H19 – heavily strain hardened |
3003 vs 3004-H19 vs 5052 Aluminum Coil
The appropriate aluminum coil grade depends on required strength, forming performance, corrosion environment and downstream processing.
| Alloy | Main Characteristic | Relative Strength | Relative Cost | Typical Selection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3003 | Good formability and general corrosion resistance | Lower | Lower | General sheet and formed components |
| 3004-H19 | Higher strength Al-Mn-Mg alloy in hard temper | Medium | Medium | Can stock, closures and high-strength thin-gauge products |
| 5052 | Higher Mg content with improved strength and corrosion resistance | Higher | Higher | Marine, transportation and more demanding formed components |
