Alloy Group : 3XXX

PRINCIPAL ALLOYING ELEMENT: Manganese

ALUMINUM ALLOY 3005 GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

3005 is an aluminum alloy with manganese as its primary alloying element, supplemented with a magnesium addition which makes it stronger than 3003 alloy. The 3005 supplied by United Aluminum has good formability and a very fine grain structure.
