What is 5052 aluminum?

5052 aluminum is an alloy from the 5000 series, known for its excellent corrosion resistance—especially in marine environments—and high strength. This alloy primarily contains magnesium, along with small amounts of chromium and other elements, which enhance its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.

Common dimensions and thicknesses of 5052 aluminum sheet are:

Thickness: 5052 aluminum sheet is available in a wide range of thicknesses, from thin to very thick.

Common thicknesses include: 0.5 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm

Standard dimensions: 5052 aluminum sheets are commonly manufactured in standard sizes such as: 1000 x 2000 mm, 1200 x 2400 mm, 1250 x 2500 mm, 1500 x 3000 mm, 2000 x 6000 mm

Custom dimensions: In addition to standard sizes, 5052 aluminum sheets can also be cut to specific dimensions based on customer requirements.

Key characteristics of 5052 aluminum:

Corrosion resistance: 5052 aluminum has excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments or areas with chemical exposure. This makes it an ideal choice for outdoor applications and use in harsh conditions.

Workability: 5052 aluminum is easy to work with using various methods, including cutting, stamping, bending, and welding. It can be fabricated into components and products of various shapes and sizes.

Applications:

– Maritime industry: Used in the construction of ship hulls, marine vessels, and structures exposed to seawater.

– Automotive industry: Used in components requiring high strength and lightweight properties.

– Outdoor structures: Used for bridges, towers, and structures that must withstand harsh weather conditions.

– Oil and gas industry: Used in offshore equipment and structures.
