3102aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wroughtaluminium-manganese family (3000 or 3xxx series). It is one of the most lightly alloyed grades in the 3000 series, with at least 97.85%aluminium by weight. Like most other aluminium-manganese alloys, 3102 is a general-purpose alloy with moderate strength, good workability, and good corrosion resistance. Being lightly alloyed, it tends on the lower strength and higher corrosion resistance side. It can becold worked to produce tempers with a higher strength but a lower ductility. It can be formed by rolling,extrusion, andforging. As a wrought alloy, it is not used incasting.[1]
3102 aluminium can be alternately referred to by theUNS designation A93102. The alloy and its various tempers are covered by the following ASTM standards:[2]
