3003 h22 aluminum sheet

3003-H22 aluminum alloy is a material in the H22 state of the 3003 aluminum alloy. This annealing process partially releases stress, resulting in a decrease in the material's hardness and strength.

3003 H22 aluminum sheet is a cold-processed product of the aluminum-manganese alloy (Al-Mn system), classified as a rust-resistant aluminum sheet. It has medium strength, good corrosion resistance, and excellent machinability.

3003-H22 aluminum sheet is a strain-hardened and partially annealed alloy in the 3000 series. Its manganese content (1.0-1.5%) combined with aluminum content (98.7%) enhances its strength and formability. The H22 temper indicates that its hardness is between fully annealed (O) and fully hard (H28) states, thus achieving a balance between ductility and mechanical elasticity. This aluminum sheet is commonly referred to as "diamond plate" or "checker plate, " with a surface featuring raised anti-slip patterns, making it an ideal choice for industrial and decorative applications.

3003 H22 aluminum sheet is a versatile, non-heat-treatable alloy known for its excellent formability, corrosion resistance, and medium strength. It is widely used in fields that require both strength and processability, such as roofing, wall panels, and decorative elements.

What is H22 aluminum?

3003-H22 aluminum sheet is a strain-hardened and partially annealed alloy within the 3000 series aluminum alloys. The combination of its manganese content (1.0–1.5%) and aluminum content (approximately 98.7%) enhances both strength and formability. The H22 temper indicates a hardness level between fully annealed (O) and fully hardened (H28), achieving a balance between ductility and mechanical resilience. This aluminum sheet features raised anti-slip patterns on the surface, commonly referred to as a “diamond plate” or “tread plate, ” making it an ideal choice for both industrial and decorative applications.

3003 H22 Aluminum Properties

Property Category Description
Hardness and Strength The hardness and strength of 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet are between the fully annealed (O temper) and fully cold-worked (such as H18) states. It has moderate strength, suitable for applications that require certain mechanical strength without extreme hardness, such as body panels, ventilation systems, and architectural exterior materials.
Toughness 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has good toughness. Compared to harder tempers (like H24 or H28), it maintains good formability and fracture resistance while still offering relatively high strength. This makes it suitable for structural components that need a certain strength and can undergo processes such as stamping and bending.
Corrosion Resistance 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has excellent corrosion resistance, offering strong resistance to humid air, moisture, and mild acidic or alkaline media. It is widely used in kitchen equipment, food containers, ship structures, and outdoor equipment in humid or corrosive environments.
Formability and Weldability 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet offers excellent formability and weldability. It is suitable for various processes such as stamping, deep drawing, bending, and rolling, and can be joined using conventional welding methods such as TIG, MIG, or resistance welding. It is an ideal material for manufacturing complex components.
Film Laminating/Coating Compatibility The surface of 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet can undergo film laminating or coating treatment, which enhances both its appearance and its surface wear resistance and corrosion resistance. As a result, it has widespread applications in indoor and outdoor decoration, billboards, curtain walls, and architectural interior design.
Corrosion Resistance 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has exceptional corrosion resistance, maintaining good service life in marine environments, industrial pollution, and acid rain conditions. It is commonly used in ship interiors, transportation equipment, and industrial equipment casings, where high corrosion resistance is required.
Lightweight 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has a density of 2.7–2.8 g/cm³, much lighter than traditional steel, making it more convenient for handling, installation, and use. It effectively reduces the overall weight of the structure, making it a common choice in energy-saving and environmentally friendly designs.
Aesthetic 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has a smooth and bright surface. After polishing or rolling, it can achieve a mirror-like finish. It is widely used in products requiring high visual appeal, such as light fixtures, home appliance casings, display racks, and decorative panels.
Weldability 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet can be welded well and is suitable for common welding processes such as gas welding and arc welding. The strength and corrosion resistance of the welded joints are also excellent, making it suitable for structural applications such as pipe connections and box assembly.
Surface Treatment Options 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet can be provided with a rolled surface or a pressed diamond pattern surface. This not only enhances the visual effect but also improves the functionality in practical applications. It is particularly suited for use in flooring, protective steps, and vehicle interiors, where both aesthetics and practicality are important.
Anti-Slip Surface 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet has excellent anti-slip properties. With embossed patterns such as diamond, orange peel, or checkerboard, its surface provides good friction, making it ideal for high-traffic areas such as stair treads, elevator floors, sidewalks, and vehicle undercarriages.
Not Heat Treatable 3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet cannot be heat treated to enhance its strength. Instead, its mechanical properties are obtained through cold processing (such as rolling). This characteristic helps prevent heat treatment deformation during finished product processing, making it suitable for applications that require high stability.

3003 H22 Aluminum Sheet Applications

Suitable for industrial applications that require medium strength and adequate flexibility, such as sheet metal processing and lightweight structural components.

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.

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)
