Product Description
5052 H32 aluminum alloy sheet is a durable material with high strength and corrosion resistance.
5052 aluminum is a versatile premium-grade material suitable for a wide range of applications. Although the metal is not heat treatable, magnesium and chromium -- the two most prevalent alloying elements -- significantly increase the aluminum's strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The increased tensile strength and yield strength allows the alloy to handle high levels of stress and stand up to the harshest of environmental conditions.

Aluminum Material Advantages
Aluminum tanker trailers are used to transport petrochemical products such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene, methanol, and ethanol. They are lightweight with mass as little as 6 tons, allowing increased cargo capacity. Since the tanker body is made of aluminum, this type of trailer doesn't require anti-rust treatment and eliminates concerns about rust residue or damage. The material is also environmentally friendly.
Applications for 5052 Aluminum
Because it's stronger than other popular alloys and has greater corrosion resistance, 5052 aluminum is ideal for marine industries, chemical applications, and electronics. Its uses include:
- Fuel tanks
- Truck-trailer side panels and cabs
- Road signs
- Hydraulic tubes
- Kitchen cabinets
- Small boats
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the characteristics of 5052 aluminum vs. 6061 aluminum?
5052 and 6061 are likely the two most widely used aluminum grades. Both are lightweight, offering strong corrosion resistance and high tensile strength, but which is "best" depends on the requirements of the application. 5052 is easier to bend and form without cracking, while 6061 can be extruded into various shapes and strengthens with heat treatment.
