In this detailed article, we explore the intricacies of 3004 Aluminium Coil, its specifications, advantages, applications, and more.

What is 3004 Aluminium Coil?

3004 Aluminium Coil is a popular aluminum alloy coil, predominantly composed of aluminum, magnesium, and a small amount of other alloying elements. It is renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance, workability, and weldability, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial applications, including automobile bodies, fuel tanks, tanks, and building shells.

Key Features

• Processing: Exceptional workability, allowing for easy processing into various shapes.
• Heat Treatment: Unlike some alloys, 3004 cannot be heat treated but can be annealed after cold working.
• Welding: Exhibits good weldability, suitable for various welding methods.

Specifications of 3004 Aluminium Coil

Our 3004 Aluminium Coil is available in a range of specifications to cater to diverse industrial needs:

• Thickness: 0.2mm – 6.0mm
• Width: 100mm – 2600mm
• Length: Customizable according to customer requirements
• Status: H14, H16, H18, H19, H22, H24, H26, H28, H32, H34, H36, H38

It is important to note that the specifications of 3004 Aluminium Coils produced by different manufacturers may vary, and the specific details should be confirmed with the manufacturer.

Advantages of 3004 Aluminium Coil

• Weldability: Good weldability ensures strong and stable bonds in various applications.
• Corrosion Resistance: High resistance to corrosion makes it suitable for environments with exposure to moisture and chemicals.
• Plasticity: Offers good plasticity, allowing for easy shaping and forming.
• Formability: Excellent formability for complex designs.
• Solubility: Good solubility for recycling and reuse.
• Strength: Medium strength makes it ideal for a wide range of applications.

Main Disadvantage

• Heat Treatability: The main limitation is that it cannot be strengthened through heat treatment.

Physical Data of 3004 Aluminium Coil

Chemical Composition

The chemical composition of 3004 Aluminium Coil is as follows:

Features of 3004 Aluminium Coil

1. Cold Working: 3004 aluminum alloy can be cold worked to achieve a higher strength temper but not heat treated.
2. Rolling and Extrusion: Commonly used in the production of beverage cans but not typically forged. As a forging alloy, it is not used for casting.
3. Plasticity: Higher plasticity in the annealed state, better plasticity in the semi-cold hardened state, and lower plasticity in the cold hardened state. The anodized 3004 aluminum plate surface has enhanced corrosion resistance and can present a rich and colorful color.

More Information on 3004 Aluminium Coil

Principal Design Features

• This is an alloy of aluminum with magnesium and manganese. It is strengthened (hardened) by cold work only as it does not respond to heat treatment, other than annealing.

Machinability

• The machinability of this alloy is considered to be excellent, especially in the hard temper. As is typical of the aluminum alloys, an oil lubricant should be used for machining, although light cuts may be done dry.

Forming

• AL 3004 is easily formed by either cold or hot working with conventional tooling.

Welding

• The alloy is weldable by the standard methods. Best results are obtained by use of TIG or MIG welding with the same alloy as filler rod.

Heat Treatment

• Heat treatment has no effect upon this alloy. It may be annealed after cold working however.

Hot Working

• The hot working range (as for forging) is 260°C to 483°C. In that range, the alloy is easily hot worked.

Cold Working

• Cold working capability of this alloy is good: it can readily be cold worked up to a 75% reduction of area by conventional methods. Working beyond the 75% reduction requires an intermediate anneal.

Annealing

• Annealing, during or following cold working, is done at 344°C, allowing adequate time for thorough heating, followed by air cooling.

Hardening

• Cold working is the only means of producing the harder (H) tempers of this alloy.

Applications of 3004 Aluminium Coil

3004 Aluminium Coil has a wide range of applications across various industries:

• Building and Construction: Used for exterior wall panels, roof panels, ceilings, wall panels, and skylights.
• Electronics: Utilized in manufacturing electronic product casings, heat spreaders, and heat sinks.
• Packaging: Employed in the production of various packaging materials, such as beverage cans, food cans, and pharmaceutical cans.
• Automotive and Transportation: Found in the manufacture of automotive parts like doors, roofs, and hoods.
• Furniture and Home Decoration: Used in the production of furniture and home decoration items, including tables, chairs, lamps, and decorative panels.
• Other Applications: Also used in shipbuilding, chemical equipment, household appliances, mechanical equipment, and the manufacturing of handicrafts.

Comparison: 3004 Aluminium Coil vs 3003 Aluminium Coil

Both 3004 and 3003 aluminium coils are used in the manufacture of industrial components. However, there are key differences:

• Chemical Composition: 3004 contains 1% magnesium, enhancing its corrosion resistance, weldability, and processing performance compared to 3003.
• Strength: 3004 has slightly higher strength but lower plasticity than 3003, making it suitable for applications requiring high strength but less plasticity.
