MASTAR 3003 aluminum tube supply temper
- 3003 O
- O temper is the annealing state of 3003 aluminum alloy, which has the best ductility and formability.
- 3003 H14
- H14 is a hardening temper of 3003 aluminum alloy, which is achieved by cold working to a semi-hard temper.
- 3003 H112
- H112 is achieved through slight cold working or heat treatment during the manufacturing process.
- 3003 O aluminum tube is particularly suitable for applications that require severe deformation, as well as complex bending and forming operations. This state of aluminum tube is most suitable for those occasions where strength is not required but excellent formability is required.
- 3003 H14 aluminum tube has higher strength than the annealed state (O temper) while still maintaining good formability, making it particularly suitable for application scenarios requiring higher strength.
- 3003 H112 aluminum tube has a slightly higher strength than the O temper, but lower than the H14 state, while maintaining good formability and ductility. This temper of aluminum tube is suitable for applications requiring moderate strength and good formability, and is often used in the manufacture of pipes, structural parts and general purposes.

Annealing treatment of 3003 aluminum tube
Annealing is a heat treatment process that increases the ductility and formability of aluminum tubes. For 3003 aluminum tubes, the annealing treatment is usually carried out at a temperature range of 375°C to 425°C, and the duration depends on the thickness of the material and the required properties.
Bending of 3003 aluminum tube
3003 aluminum tube is easy to bend due to its good formability. Here are some suggestions for bending processing:
Use an appropriate bend radius, usually not less than 3 times the outside diameter of the tube.
For complex bends, consider using filler material to prevent wrinkling of the tube wall.
Annealing can be performed before bending to improve the plasticity of the material.
Welding 3003 aluminum tube
3003 aluminum alloy has good weldability. Commonly used welding methods include:
- TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding
- MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding
- Resistance welding
When welding, it is recommended to use 4043 or 5356 aluminum welding wire and ensure that the welding area is clean and free of contamination.
