5052/3104 aluminum alloy plates for pop top cans
3104, 3105, 5052, and 5182 are four common materials for making cans. They have some differences in chemical composition and physical properties, but they can meet the different requirements of customers;
3104 H19 aluminum is an aluminum product when 3104 aluminum alloy is tempered to the state of H19, which increases the strength of the aluminum alloy by tempering.
The "H19" in the name refers to the tempering of aluminum, which is a heat treatment process that alters the specific mechanical and physical properties of the metal.
3104 H19 aluminum is usually used as the material for producing aluminum can body.

Advantages of 3104 H19 aluminum
Aluminum cans made of 3014 H19 aluminum sheet have the advantages of light weight, good sealing, shading, odorless, non-toxic, high and low temperature resistance, etc. They also have certain pressure resistance, especially suitable for canning carbonated drinks and beer and other liquids.
3104 H19 aluminum alloy is an aluminum alloy suitable for deformation, it has up to 20% elongation, more than 275Mpa high tensile strength, it is these characteristics make 3104 aluminum alloy has a good deep punching performance and processing ductility, suitable for making beverage cans, beer cans and cans of cans.
The addition of magnesium and manganese metal in 3104 aluminum makes the alloy have very good corrosion resistance, excellent anodic oxidation, no low temperature brittleness, strong weather resistance, etc.
It is also widely used in the field of color coated aluminum substrate manufacturing, oxidation materials, aluminum blinds, lamp holders, cell phone battery cases, automobile fuel tanks, etc.
3104 H19 aluminum is a recyclable, environmentally friendly material that produces products that can be recycled and reprocessed for use, making it ideal for packaging a variety of products.
5052 aluminum for can lid
Alloy 5052 is for making can lids and 5182 alloy is for the pull rings. Both of them belongs to aluminum-magnesium alloys, which is of good corrosion resistance, good weldability, cold workability, and medium strength.
However, the 5182 alloy has a higher magnesium content than the 5052 alloy, and also has a small amount of silicon, so the weldability is better than the 5052 alloy. Therefore, the 5052 alloy is mostly used for can lids, and the 5182 alloy is mostly used for pull rings.
