The present paper shows the variation in softening of 3003 alloy during annealing at final product gauge caused by fluctuation of Mn in solid solution prior to the anneal. The fluctuations of Mn in solid solution mainly are attribute in ingot preheat and/or hot rolling practice changes. The control of Mn in solid solution prior final anneal is necessary to achieve stable mechanical properties in back annealed tempers (-H2X) of 3003 alloy.
