Introduction to Aluminum 5052

What
Aluminum 5052 is a non-heat-treatable alloy in the 5xxx series, strengthened primarily by magnesium. It is best known for its excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and chemical environments. Compared with 2xxx or 7xxx alloys, it has lower strength but much better formability and weldability.
Advantages
Excellent corrosion resistance in seawater and harsh environments
Good formability and bendability
Strong weldability without significant strength loss
High fatigue strength
 
Applications
Marine components and boat structures
Fuel tanks and pipelines
Pressure vessels
Architectural panels and enclosures
