3003 h22 aluminum sheet
3003-H22 aluminum sheet is a typical product of the commonly used 3003 aluminum alloy in H22 temper, belonging to the aluminum-manganese (Al-Mn) rust-resistant aluminum alloys. The H22 temper indicates that the material has undergone strain hardening with partial annealing, with mechanical properties between fully annealed (O temper) and fully hardened (H28) conditions, achieving a good balance between strength and formability.
Thanks to a manganese content of approximately 1.0–1.5%, 3003-H22 aluminum sheet maintains excellent corrosion resistance while offering higher strength and more stable processing performance compared to pure aluminum. This alloy cannot be strengthened through heat treatment, but it exhibits excellent cold workability and good weldability, suitable for various processing methods such as stamping, bending, and rolling.
In practical applications, 3003-H22 is often available as patterned aluminum sheets (diamond plate, anti-slip plate), with clear surface textures and high gloss. It provides good anti-slip and traction performance while also offering decorative and practical qualities, making it particularly popular in applications with higher aesthetic requirements.
3003-H22 aluminum alloy sheets are economical, versatile, and medium-strength aluminum materials, especially suitable for applications that require good formability along with certain corrosion resistance and appearance quality, such as patterned plates, protective tread plates, roofing systems, wall cladding, fuel tanks, pipelines, and various industrial and architectural components.

3003-H22 Aluminum Alloy: Composition and Temper Overview
3003-H22 is a commonly used designation for 3000 series aluminum alloys, where the numbers and letters correspond to alloy composition and temper condition. This material is widely used in industrial and decorative fields due to its good formability, stable mechanical properties, and excellent corrosion resistance.
3003
3003 is a typical aluminum-manganese (Al-Mn) alloy, with manganese as the main alloying element. By adding an appropriate amount of manganese to commercially pure aluminum, 3003 aluminum alloy increases strength by approximately 20% compared to 1100 pure aluminum without significantly reducing ductility, while maintaining good machinability, weldability, and corrosion resistance. This alloy cannot be strengthened by heat treatment and relies on cold working to enhance its strength.
H22
H22 is a typical temper designation for strain-hardened aluminum alloys, with the specific meaning as follows:
- H: Indicates the material has undergone cold working (strain hardening) to improve strength.
- The first "2": Indicates that after work hardening, partial annealing or stabilization has been performed to relieve some internal stress, making performance more stable.
- The second "2": Indicates the hardness level, which is 1/4 of the 1–8 hardness scale, with hardness between fully annealed (O temper) and higher hardened states (such as H14, H28).
In the H22 temper, 3003 aluminum alloy achieves a good balance between strength and formability: it has higher strength than O temper, but is easier to bend, stamp, and form than fully hardened conditions, reducing the risk of cracking. At the same time, its corrosion resistance and surface quality remain stable, making it very suitable for applications that require certain structural strength while emphasizing ease of processing.
Therefore, 3003-H22 aluminum sheets are commonly used in patterned plates, anti-slip plates, decorative panels, roofing systems, fuel tanks, pipelines, and various lightweight structural components, making it a practical aluminum alloy material that balances performance, cost, and processing adaptability.

3003 H22 Aluminum FAQs
What is 3003 aluminum good for?
3003 aluminum alloy is one of the most widely used manganese-containing aluminum alloys. It belongs to the 3xxx series. Although it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment, it offers excellent corrosion resistance, high workability, and moderate strength.
- Heat exchange applications (its strongest advantage): With excellent thermal conductivity (approximately 193 W/m·K), it is a core material for automotive radiators, air conditioning evaporators, HVAC ducts, and condensers.
- Food and chemical containers: 3003 aluminum is non-toxic and highly resistant to many chemicals, making it ideal for cookware (pots/bakeware), beverage cans, storage tanks, pressure vessels, and laboratory equipment.
- Architectural exterior decoration: Due to its ease of forming and finishing, it is widely used for roofing panels, corrugated sheets, building facades, garage doors, and acoustic ceilings.
- Transportation: In heavy vehicles, 3003 is commonly fabricated into fuel tanks and truck or trailer skins.
- Anti-slip applications (H22 temper): 3003-H22 is frequently manufactured into tread plates (diamond plates) for refrigerated truck flooring, steps, toolboxes, and dock walkways, balancing weight with slip resistance and durability.
What is the difference between 3003 H22 and 5052?
When selecting materials, 3003 and 5052 are the two alloys most often compared. Simply put: 3003 is the "cost-effective all-rounder, " while 5052 is the "high-performance structural champion."
| Property | 3003-H22 Aluminum Alloy | 5052 Aluminum Alloy (Commonly H32) |
| Primary alloying element | Manganese (Mn) | Magnesium (Mg) |
| Strength level | Medium strength (about 20% higher than 1100 pure aluminum) | High strength (one of the strongest non-heat-treatable alloys) |
| Tensile strength | Approx. 145 – 185 MPa | Approx. 210 – 260 MPa |
| Corrosion resistance | Excellent (suitable for general atmospheric environments) | Outstanding (resistant to saltwater/marine corrosion) |
| Formability | Excellent (softer, suitable for deep drawing/bending) | Good (higher hardness; small bend radii may crack) |
| Weldability | Excellent (supports all welding methods) | Very good (higher magnesium content requires more precise control) |
| Relative cost | Lower (approximately 15–20% cheaper than 5052) | Higher (due to magnesium content and processing cost) |
Comparison of 3003 H22 Aluminum and 6061 Alloy
When selecting materials for structural load-bearing applications, it is important to understand the differences between 3003 H22 and the commonly used 6061 alloy:
If you prioritize excellent formability, ease of bending, lower cost, and a material suitable for light to medium applications with a bright decorative surface, then 3003-H22 is the ideal choice.
If your primary requirements are higher strength, superior machinability, and maintaining structural integrity under heavy loads (such as stair treads or ramps), and formability or bending performance is less critical, then the 6061-T6 alloy is more suitable.
