With modern manufacturing facilities, skilled technical teams, and strict quality control, Mourad Metals delivers Aluminium 3003 Forgings known for excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, and reliable performance, making them suitable for automotive, construction, and chemical processing industries.
Aluminium 3003 is an aluminium–manganese alloy containing approximately 1.0–1.5% manganese, which enhances its strength while maintaining excellent corrosion resistance. Mechanically, Aluminium 3003 forgings exhibit moderate tensile strength, good ductility, and excellent workability. The alloy also offers good weldability and machinability, with typical tensile strength ranging from 115 to 145 MPa depending on temper and processing conditions.

Aluminum 3003 offers excellent corrosion resistance, good formability, lightweight, and high strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for custom forgings in industries like aerospace, automotive, and construction.
Aluminum 3003 is not ideal for high-temperature forging applications due to its low strength at elevated temperatures. It is more suitable for applications requiring good formability at moderate temperatures.
Aluminum 3003 has good workability, making it easy to forge. Its excellent formability allows for smooth shaping, but it requires careful temperature control to avoid material damage during forging.
Aluminium 3003 Forgings are widely used in roofing and siding panels, chemical equipment, automotive parts, and heat exchangers. They are also applied in marine environments, architectural components, and general fabrication requiring corrosion resistance and ease of forming. Due to their combination of durability, versatility, and corrosion resistance, Aluminium 3003 forgings are ideal for components exposed to indoor and outdoor conditions.
