Application : Suitable for applications requiring good formability, complex shapes, such as cans, lids, bottle caps for food and beverage packaging.
3104 H12 Aluminum Plate
H12 is a strain hardening temper achieved by a partial annealing process.
- Properties : 3104 h12 has higher strength and lower ductility than O temper, this temper has higher strength than O temper, but still has some formability.
- Application : Ideal for applications that require some formability but also some strength, such as HVAC components, heat exchangers, and lighting reflectors.
3104 H14 Aluminum Plate
3104 H14 is a more severe strain hardening temper than H12.
- Properties : With higher strength and lower ductility, this tempered state has higher strength and lower formability than H12.
- Application : For applications requiring good strength and moderate formability, such as automotive body panels, fuel tanks, and chemical processing equipment.
3104 H16 Aluminum Plate
H16 This temper is similar to H14 and less ductile.
- Properties : This tempered condition is stronger and less formable than H14.
- Application : It is suitable for applications requiring high strength and minimal formability, such as truck trailer sidewalls, boat hulls and aircraft components.
3104 H18 Aluminum Plate
H18 is the hardest temper of 3104 aluminum, achieved through a more extensive strain hardening process.
- Properties : It has very high strength but very low ductility, with the highest strength and lowest formability in the tempered state of 3104 aluminum sheet.
- Application : It is suitable for applications requiring maximum strength and minimum formability, such as missile components, armor plates and structural components in high stress environments.
3104 h32 Aluminum Plate
H32 - This is the strain hardened and stable tempered condition achieved by low temperature heat treatment after the initial strain hardening process. With good strength and excellent formability, it is suitable for applications requiring both strength and formability.
H32 : This tempered state has good strength and excellent formability due to low temperature heat treatment. It is suitable for applications where both strength and formability are required, such as sheet metal fabrication, automotive body panels and signage.
