Aluminum Tempers

3005 Aluminum Coil is a non-heat-treatable Al-Mn alloy with moderate strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and good formability. Compared with 3003 aluminum, 3005 offers slightly higher strength while maintaining similar processing performance, making it a cost-effective solution for architectural and industrial applications.

3005 aluminum coil is widely used in building construction, roofing systems, wall panels, insulation materials, and general fabrication, especially where durability and surface quality are important.
