3003 Aluminum Strip
3003 is the most widely used of all aluminum alloys. It is essentially commercially pure aluminum with the addition of manganese which increases the strength some 20% over the 1100 grade.
3003 aluminum is highly workable, formable, and weldable, with exceptional corrosion resistance. It is an alloy that is particularly popular for outdoor projects that require extensive forming or joining operations. It is typically used in chemical tanks, trim, pressure vessels, piping, and decorative parts.
