3004 3104 H19 Aluminum Coil Strip for Can Body Features
When making beverage cans, 3104 3004 aluminum coil strips usually need to be used in different states. The H19 status is one of them and has the following characteristics:
- 1. High strength: In H19 state, 3104 3004 aluminum coil strip has high strength and can withstand the stretching and forming processes during the production process.
- 2. Excellent formability: Aluminum coil strips still have good formability in the H19 state, which is beneficial to the production of tanks with complex shapes.
- 3. Stable thickness control: In the H19 state, the thickness control of 3004 3104 aluminum coil strip is more precise, which can ensure that the thickness tolerance of the tank is within a smaller range, which is beneficial to subsequent processing and the stability of product quality.
- 4. Corrosion resistance: Magnesium and manganese elements are added to 3104 3004 H19 aluminum coils to enhance its anti-oxidation and corrosion resistance. There is no need to pre-treat the inner and outer walls of the aluminum can. This makes them ideal for liquid beverage packaging, requiring only standard aluminum coatings/oils.
Exterior quality for 3004 3104 aluminum coil strips for can body
In order to ensure the quality and performance of beverage cans, it is crucial to strictly control the quality of aluminum coil strips. During the production process, the following aspects need to be strictly controlled:
- 1. Thickness control: Ensure that the thickness of the aluminum coil strip is controlled within the specified range to ensure the stability of subsequent processing and product consistency.
- 2. Flatness: The aluminum coil strip is not allowed to have obvious waves and requires high flatness, which is beneficial to subsequent processing.
- 3. Side curvature: Control the side curvature of the product within the specified range to ensure the appearance quality of the product.
- 4. Terminal warpage: Strictly control the terminal warpage height of the product to ensure the assembly quality and stability of the product.
Surface quality: Bubbles, paint leakage, scratches and other defects are not allowed on the surface of aluminum coil strips to ensure the appearance quality of the product.
