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.

Key properties and benefits

5052 aluminum’s most notable properties are its weldability, formability, strength, durability, and electrical

and thermal conductivity. 5052 aluminum’s excellent weldability ensures strong bonds with excellent structural

integrity. This also helps simplify the assembly process in construction and manufacturing. 5052 aluminum’s

high formability allows the metal to be shaped into precise, complex shapes for a wide range of applications.

The alloy also lends itself to deep drawing and spinning, which can reduce costs by producing large quantities

of products at scale.

Aluminum Material Advantages than other material

Aluminum tanker trailers are used to transport petrochemical products such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene,

methanol, and ethanol. They are light weight with mass as little as 6 tons. Therefore, the weight of goods

carried can be increased. Since the tanker body is made of aluminum, this type of trailers does not need

anti rust treatment and there’s no need to worry about rust residue or damage done by rust. The trailer’s

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 (FAQs)

1)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.

2)What are the characteristics of 3003 vs. 5052 aluminum?

3003 and 5052 aluminum are two common aluminum alloys. Both have similar characteristics, including

good corrosion resistance and not being able to strengthen them through heat treatment. But 3003 uses

manganese for its alloying element, while 5052 uses magnesium, which gives 5052 greater strength, finishing

characteristics, and corrosion resistance.

Transportation

Aluminum sheet for tank trailers normally have a oversize width, so we use platform flat container for the shipment.
