3003 Aluminum Circle and Disc Manufacturer

What is a 3003 aluminum circle?

3003 aluminium alloy mainly adds an Mn element, which is a typical anti-rust alloy metals. 3003 aluminum circles are also called 3003 discs or 3003 aluminum round plates, It’s strength is about 10% higher than that of 1000 series discs. It is a good alternative to steel and 1000 series aluminum discs.

3003 aluminum circle

Usually, a 3003 aluminum circle is produced from 3003 aluminum plate, sheet, coil, strip or foil through cutting equipment.

3003 Aluminum disc annealing heat treatment process

Complete annealing:

Heating to 390~430℃; depending on the effective thickness of the material, the holding time is 30~120min; cooling in the furnace to 300℃ at a speed of 30~50℃/h, and then air cooling (natural cooling).

Rapid annealing:

Heating 350~370℃; depending on the effective thickness of the material, holding time 30~120min; air (natural cooling) or water cooling.

Quenching and aging:

quenching 500~510℃, air cooling (natural cooling); artificial aging 95~105℃, 3h, air cooling; natural aging at room temperature 120h

Applications

3003 aluminium circle has higher strength and corrosion resistance than the 1000-series such as 1060. It’s usually used in the production of cookware in the kitchen, such as utensils, non-stick pans/pots, bowls, or cups, and is also used in lamp, cart, signage, and building decoration materials.

Cookware: Cookware aluminium circles have extremely high requirements for hardness deep drawing performance and stable performance. The post-processing process includes an anodizing process, enamel process, spray painting, spray coating, and deep drawing; currently, it is mainly used in non-stick pans, pressure cookers, and other kitchen utensils.

Lamp accessories: Aluminum circles for lamps, aluminum discs for lampshades, lampshades for downlighting, laminate lights, street lights, and other common lighting applications.

Instruction sign: Aluminum circles for traffic road signs, used for road sign, billboards, etc.

Building materials: curtain wall panels, ceiling materials, decorative materials, etc.

Aluminum alloy is very light and durable, because there is no "rust" problem, and it looks more "pretty" than steel products. Cookware made of 3003 aluminum discs also has the characteristics of fast heat conduction and even heating.

application of 3003 aluminum circle

What is the difference between 3003, 1060 and 1100 aluminum circles?

1060 and 3003 circles are very similar in application, such as making cookers and lamps, and their prices are similar. Many industry experts are not clear about the difference between the two. But we cannot let them continue to confuse us.
