5052 aluminum sheet/plate is commonly used in fuel, marine, automotive and machine applications. 5052 aluminum has excellent formability, good corrosion resistance, good weldability, and good processability.
Among non-heat treatable alloys, 5052 is considered one of the strongest options. Although not heat treatable, aluminum 50502 can be strengthened through the work hardening process (5052-H32). 5052 does not contain copper, which makes it less susceptible to salt water corrosion than copper alloys.Quick Quote
