5000 series AA5754 Aluminium Plate with Excellent Corrosion Resistance

5000 series AA5754 Aluminium Plate with Excellent Corrosion Resistance

5754 is an aluminium alloy with magnesium as the primary alloying element. It has

good formability when in the fully soft, annealed temper and can be work-hardened

to very high strength levels.

The material EN AW-5754 shows high mechanical properties among the non-heat tre

-atable aluminium alloys and shows a very good atmospheric and seawater corrosion

resistance. The material has a good weldability and is used for example in marine and

offshore applications. The material EN AW-5754 is not heat treatable and as anodizing

quality it is suitable for decorative anodizing.

the Typical Applications of 5754 Aluminium

1. Marine & Offshore Engineering

- Hull panels, decks, bulkheads (typically 3–12mm thick) due to seawater corrosion resistance.

2. Chemical Equipment

- Storage tanks, pipelines, reactor linings (2–8mm thick) for acid/alkali resistance.

3. Transportation

- Automotive fuel tanks, truck bodies (1.5–6mm thick) for lightweight and corrosion resistance.

- Subway/train interior panels (1–4mm thick) with fireproof requirements.

4. Architectural Decoration

- Curtain walls, roofing (2–5mm thick), often with (spray coating) or anodizing.

5. Pressure Vessels

- Medium-thick plates (6–25mm) welded for LNG tanks and cryogenic equipment.

Selection Considerations

Corrosion Resistance: The Mg content (2.6–3.6%) makes 5754 ideal for humid/corrosive

environments, but avoid direct contact with copper/iron to prevent galvanic corrosion.

Weldability: Suitable for TIG/MIG welding (recommended filler: 5356).

Alternatives: For higher strength, consider 5083; for lower cost (non-critical corrosion

resistance), 5052 is an option.

Our Production Range

We use the Wolrd Advanced Equipments for your Aluminium Alloy Material

• All the melting and holding furnaces are supplied by GAUTSCHI (Switzerland) Company.

they improve the quality of Aluminum alloy slab which can guarantee Aluminium alloy

products with high-performance.
