5052 sheet metal thickness.

5052 aluminum is optimal for sheet metal work and is very easy to form at room temperature. 5052 h32 aluminum alloy is a high strength non heat treatable metal material that contains magnesium as its added character element. 5052 has excellent workability weldability and corrosion resisitance. Mill finish not polished.

5052 h32 aluminum sheet astm b209 qq a 250 8 superior corrosion resistance good weldability with excellent formability makes 5052 aluminum sheet a common choice for chemical marine or saltwater applications. Used for aircraft fuel tanks storm shutters refrigerator liners and panels. Tanks marine hardware boat hulls etc. This material is very bendable and can therefore handle tight radii.

It is typically used in aircraft fuel lines sheet metal work fuel tanks appliances lighting wires and rivets. A non heat treatable alloy 5052 aluminum is readily welded by conventional methods. 5052 aluminum sheet applications include. 5052 h32 aluminum alloy sheets 1 32 to 1 2 inch thick excellent corrosion resistance particularly in marine applications non heat treatable view cart contact us metals.

5052 is stronger than 1100 or 3003 alloys but only has a fair machinability rating. Conforms to ams qq a 250 8 and astm b209. Tensile strength range is 31 to 44 ksi. 5052 is alloyed with 2 5 magnesium.

5052 provides excellent formability good corrosion resistance good workability and higher strength than that of either 1100 or 3003. Aluminum sheet plate 5052 is normally used for fuel marine automotive and machine applications. Ryerson offers heat treatable aluminum sheet grades like the popular 6061 aluminum alloy that can be used for commercial applications that require strength corrosion resistance and machinability as well as non heat treatable grades when formability and weldability are priorities. 5052 aluminum h32.

Most of our 5052 aluminum sheet plate stock is available in full size and custom cut lengths. However aluminum 5052 h32 also contains small amounts of chromium silicon iron copper manganese and zinc to add additional strength to the aluminum base product. We offer waterjet services for this product.
