Due to the addition of manganese element, the strength and hardness of 3003 aluminum sheet is about 10% higher than that of 1100 aluminum plate and 1060 aluminum plate. At the same time, it has the good solubility, good formability, and excellent corrosion resistance.

3003 welding is readily accomplished by means of conventional welding methods, but may be gummy if machined. It has excellent weldability by all standard methods, including gas, electric and resistance welding. GMAW and GTAW are preferred and widely used to produce structural welds. Filler alloys are usually 1100 although other alloys are possible.
