Value Collection 09426081 Aluminum Sheet 3003-H14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 09426081 is a flat aluminum sheet cut to 48 inches long by 24 inches wide at 0.025 inches thick, formed from 3003-H14 aluminum alloy. Alloy 3003 offers good corrosion resistance, moderate strength, and excellent workability, making it a go-to stock material for fabrication, ductwork patching, flashing, and general sheet metal work. The H14 temper designation indicates the sheet has been strain-hardened and partially annealed, giving it a balance of formability and rigidity suited to light bending, rolling, and cutting operations. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, plumbers, and general contractors routinely work with this gauge and alloy for custom fabrication tasks in the field or shop.

This sheet is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a workable, corrosion-resistant aluminum stock is required. Common uses include duct repair patches, custom flashing, equipment housing panels, ventilation components, and general-purpose sheet metal fabrication. At 0.025 inches thick, the material is thin enough to cut with standard aviation snips or a sheet metal shear and bend on a hand brake without specialized tooling.

Key Features

• 3003-H14 alloy: strain-hardened temper for improved rigidity over annealed stock while retaining good formability
• 0.025-inch thickness suitable for hand-tool cutting and light brake bending
• 48 inches x 24 inches sheet size provides a full square footage of working stock
• Aluminum construction offers natural corrosion resistance without surface treatment
• Lightweight at 2.88 pounds, reducing handling fatigue during field fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose flat aluminum sheet for use in custom sheet metal fabrication, ductwork patching, flashing, and similar light commercial and residential trade applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal work with this material is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal fabricators. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling, cutting, or forming aluminum sheet, as edges are sharp. Power down and isolate any electrical or mechanical equipment before applying patch panels or flashing in proximity to live systems. Ensure all cuts and bends comply with applicable local codes and project specifications.
