3105 Aluminum Plate Performance Informations
Param | Value |
Machinability | Machinability of AL 3105 is fair. Oil lubricants should be used for all machining operations. Machinability of the alloy when in the harder (H) tempers is improved over machining in the annealed (O) condition. |
Forming | The forming characteristics of the alloy are very good by all conventional processes regardless of temper. Bend radii should be in the one thickness to 2 t range for annealed, H12, H14 and H16 tempers. The H18 temper requires bend radii of2 to 7 t, depending upon thickness of the material. |
Welding | Weldability of this alloy is excellent by all commercial techniques. Arc welding is preferred for the best results. |
Heat Treatment | A non-heat treatable alloy. |
Hot Working | The hot working range (as for forging) is 205°C to 372°C. In that range the alloy is easily hot worked. |
Cold Working | The cold working characteristics of AL 3105 are very good, even in the harder cold worked tempers. Bend radi for sheet up to 1/16″ thick vary from 1/2 to one t for all tempers. |
Annealing | Annealing from a cold worked condition may be accomplished at 345°C followed by air cooling. |
Aging | Not applicable to this alloy. |
Hardening | Hardens as a result of cold working only. |
