Aluminium development council of australia product data sheet aluminium 5052 uns a95052 aluminium alloys aluminium alloy 5052 contains nominally 2 5 magnesium 0 25 chromium.
Tensile strength of 5052 sheet aluminum 125.
0 15 0 35 max.
31 to 41 ksi.
Due to the presence of copper 3003 aluminum is highly resistant to corrosion.
Typical applications include aircraft fuel oil lines fuel tanks other transportation areas sheet metal work appliances and lighting wire and rivets.
While more malleable and formable than 5052 aluminum it is not as strong tensile strength 17 to 30 ksi vs.
Typical applications include marine aircraft architecture general sheet metal work heat exchangers fuel lines and tanks flooring panels streetlights appliances rivets and wire.
Aluminum 5052 h32 for extreme corrosion resistance since corrosion resistant 5052 aluminum plate and 5052 aluminum sheet provides a light weight high strength and attractive finish it is perfectly suited for a wide range of marine applications including ship building fuel tank assembly and oil line manufacturing.
It has very good corrosion resistance to seawater and the marine and industrial atmosphere.
Alloy 5052 has excellent characteristics with a high fatigue strength it is used for structures which are subject to excessive vibrations.
0 05 max each 0 15 total aluminum 5052 is one of the higher strength non heat treatable alloys annealed it is stronger than 1100 and 3003.
Conforms to ams qq a 250 8 and astm b209.
Used for aircraft fuel tanks storm shutters refrigerator liners and panels.
Tensile strength σ t 195 290 mpa 28 3 42 1 ksi.
5052 is alloyed with 2 5 magnesium.
It has good workability medium static strength high fatigue strength good weldability and very good corrosion resistance especially in marine atmospheres.
5052 has excellent workability weldability and corrosion resisitance.
However the ultimate strength may be necessary in specific instances so it may not hurt to know it.
