What is 3104 aluminum alloy?

3104 aluminum is a typical 3000 series aluminum alloy, the main alloy additive is manganese, 3104 aluminum plate belongs to the non-heat treatment strengthened aluminum alloy of AL-Mn alloy series, it is formulated for primary forming into forged products.

3104 Aluminum Sheet Describtion

It is a deformed aluminum alloy with the advantages of low density, high strength, good corrosion resistance, and easy deep drawing.

3104 alloy aluminum plate has good deep-drawing performance and is suitable for thinning, stretching, and lightweighting to reduce material consumption, and has strict requirements for each process of tank material.
3104 aluminum sheet has suitable elongation, good corrosion resistance and good processability. Therefore, we can smelt it into alloys of different hardness according to different application requirements.
3000 series aluminum alloy includes: 3003 Aluminum， 3004 Aluminum Alloy， 3105 Aluminum,etc.

Characteristics Under Different Temper

The main state of 3104 aluminum sheet/roll is H111, O, H12, H14, H16, H18, H19, H22, H24, H26, H28, H29, H32, H34, H36, H38, H39, and the maximum tension can be controlled to be greater than or equal to 275MPA , the maximum elongation can be greater than or equal to 20%.

Different Tempers have different properties:

3104-O aluminum is 3104-O aluminum in its annealed condition. It has the lowest strength and highest ductility compared to other variants of 3104 aluminum.

3104-H12 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H12 temper. To achieve this tempered state, the metal is strain hardened to about a quarter of the strength between annealed (O) and fully hardened (H18).

3104-H14 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H14 temper. To achieve this tempering, the metal is strain hardened to a strength approximately between annealed (O) and fully hardened (H18).

3104-H16 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H16 temper. To achieve this tempered state, the metal is strain hardened to approximately 3/4 of its strength between annealing (O) and fully hardening (H18).

3104-H18 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H18 temper. This is the strongest temper usually produced only by strain hardening.

3104 Aluminum For Can Lid

3104-H19 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H19 temper. To achieve this state, the metal is strain hardened to a strength of at least 10 MPa (or 1.5 ksi) over H18.

3104-H22 aluminum is 3104 aluminum in the H22 state. To achieve this state, the metal is strain hardened and then partially annealed to about a quarter of the strength of annealed (O) and fully hardened (H28).

Standard Of 3104 Aluminum Sheet

3104 is the Aluminum Association (AA) designation for this material.
In European standards it will be designated as EN AW-3104. AlMn1Mg1Cu is the EN chemical name. In addition, the UNS number is A93104.

Features of 3104 aluminum plate

• 1). Comfortable, lightweight, durable, economical and environmentally friendly;
• 2). Low plasticity, good corrosion resistance;
• 3). Good formability, solubility and corrosion resistance;
• 4). good weldability;
• 5). Good printing effect;

Excellent processing ductility. 304 aluminum sheet can be milled, boring and planed at the highest speeds of most machine tools. It can also greatly reduce the thickness and stretching amount, and has good formability and excellent deep drawing effect.

Best corrosion resistance. 304 aluminum alloy is very resistant to corrosion from gasoline, neutral inorganic salt solutions, organic acids, food, dilute acids or industrial environments.

Excellent anodization. 3104 aluminum plate is a typical color coated substrate, the surface of which has been anodized or coated, showing excellent results.

Application Of 3104 Aluminum Sheet

3104-h19 aluminum sheet has suitable strength, excellent deep impact, formability and ductility, and is most commonly used in beverage and beer cans.

3104-H19 Aluminum Sheet For Cans

3104 aluminum sheet can also be used for aluminum lamp head materials, aluminum alloy shutter materials, radiators, liquid crystal backplanes, color-coated aluminum substrates, roof tiles, can lids, cake pans, aluminum bottle caps, etc.

3104 Aluminum Sheet For Shutters

3104 board is generally considered to be a roof with a designed service life of more than 50 years, and is widely used in airport terminals, aircraft maintenance, transportation hubs, Daxing, convention and exhibition centers, stadiums, exhibition halls, public service buildings, Daxing shopping centers, etc.

Packaging and Shipping Of 3104 aluminum

Huawei aluminum products meet export standards. Can be covered with plastic film and kraft paper according to customer requirements. What’s more, wooden boxes or wooden pallets are used to protect the product from damage during shipping.

3104 Aluminum Sheet Packaging

Generally speaking, a pack of 2 tons, 18-22 tons in a 1×20’ container, 20-24 tons in a 1×40’ container.
