The strength of 3003 aluminum sheet is approximately 20% higher than that of the 1100 aluminum.
3003 O sheet is suitable for processes such as stamping, spinning, and stretching. It is an ideal choice for products requiring stamping and excellent corrosion resistance.
3003 O sheet is commonly further processed into 3003 aluminum tread plate, often used in decorative architectural applications due to its bright reflective finish. It is typically produced with a "1-bar" or "propeller" pattern on the surface.
