1. Introduction of 3 Series Aluminum Sheet
Aluminum sheet refers to sheet metal that made of aluminum ingots. It can be roughly divided into pure aluminum sheet, alloy aluminum sheet, thin aluminum sheet, hot rolled aluminum plate, tread aluminum plate, etc. According the contents of aluminum, it can also be divided into 1xxx, 2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, 7xxx, 8xxx series aluminum alloy. In China, 3 Series aluminum sheet is the earlist aluminum alloy that developed in aluminum processing. The typical alloy includes 3004, 3005, 3104, 3105, 3A21, etc. Haomei Aluminum Industry Co., Ltd. can manufacture 3 Series aluminum sheet or coil in the thickness of 0.2mm-4.5mm, width of 100mm-2600mm, and length of 500mm-16000mm with all tempers. 3003 is another typical alloy, which is usually made into aluminum foil. Its production thickness is 0.02mm- 0.055mm, and width varies from 100mm to 1600mm.
2. Properties and Applications of 3 Series Aluminum Sheet
1.0%-1.5% Mn is added to 3 series aluminum sheet, so it is also called Al-Mn sheet, and has good resistance to correction. So it is vastly used in humid environment, such as packaging, refrigerator, air-conditioner, cap stock, etc. 3xxx series aluminum sheet has good plasticity and excellent toughness. Haomei Al. adopts international advanced grinding machine to avoid defeats of products. The elongation is over 10%, so 3 Series aluminum sheet can bear extreme curve without broken. And for this character, 3 Series aluminum sheet is perfect for aluminum tread plate. Besides, 3 Series aluminum sheet has good deep-draw function and weldability, so it is high suitable for phone battery shells and traffic signs.
3. Cooperative Enterprises and Prospect of 3 Series Aluminum Sheet
With rich experiences, Haomei Al. has established long-term cooperation with many international companies, such as Apple, Samsung, Huawei. Haomei Al. is also one of the suppliers of LG in battery shell foils. For years, Haomei Al. can hold a stable market share. Though new types of materials are crushing in increasingly, I think traditional 3 Series aluminum product can still hold its position. As we can see, nowadays mobile phone is part of our life, and it is hard to retreat. In this respect, 3 Series aluminum sheet as phone shell stock still has lots of potential.
