Doug;
I think you will find that the 3003 H14 is somewhat softer than 5052
H32. Formability is good for both, though. See if you can get a square
foot of each to try.

I have been having trouble getting aluminum .062 sheets in 3003 H14.
This is what I have always used on the race car for panels and things
like that. My metal guy tells me he can get 5052 H32 for a lot less
money. Like $75 vs. $138 per sheet. What is the major difference in
working with the 5052 vs. the 3003? Anyone working with these 2 now?
