mass %. A blank cell means the standard sets no requirement for that element, not zero. Single values are limits: "≤" a maximum, "≥" a minimum.

Reference values from the cited standards. They describe what the standard requires, not a specific heat of material; the mill test certificate governs what is delivered.

Typical applications

Roofing, heat exchangers, general forming

Common questions

01What is the density of 3003?
2730 kg/m³ — the figure the weight calculators on this site use for 3003. The value is Hydro / Aluminium Association style alloy data’s.
02What is the chemical composition of 3003?
Si ≤ 0.6, Mn 1–1.5, Cu 0.05–0.2, in mass %, to AA/ASTM chemistry reference. An element the standard sets no requirement for is left blank here rather than written as zero.
03What is 3003 used for?
Roofing, heat exchangers, general forming
