5052 0 aluminum sheet
5052 O aluminum plate represents the annealed state of 5052 aluminum alloy, offering extremely high ductility and good machinability.
5052 O aluminum plate is a high-quality rust-resistant aluminum alloy plate with excellent plasticity and ductility. Compared to other states of 5052 aluminum alloy (such as H12, H14, H16, H18, H24, H32, H34), the O state provides the softest temper, suitable for various processing needs for different shapes and sizes.
What is 5052 O aluminum?
5052 O represents the performance of aluminum alloy in its fully annealed state. The annealed aluminum alloy offers the best formability, allowing for complex processing and forming while maintaining good corrosion resistance.
Properties of 5052 O Aluminum Sheet
- Ductility: 5052 O aluminum plate has extremely high ductility, allowing it to be formed into various complex shapes and sizes. Compared to other harder tempers (such as H32 or H34), 5052 O is easier to process and form.
- Strength: Despite its excellent ductility, its strength is lower than other tempers like H32 and H34, making it less suitable for applications requiring high strength.
- Corrosion Resistance: 5052 O aluminum plate exhibits excellent corrosion resistance in various environments. It maintains stable performance when exposed to moist or corrosive conditions over extended periods, making it ideal for applications with high corrosion resistance requirements.
What is the difference between 5052 H32 and 5052 O?
5052 H32 aluminum and 5052 O aluminum are variants of the same material. They have the same alloy composition and many physical properties but differ in mechanical properties due to different processing methods.
5052 H32 Aluminum vs. 5052 O Aluminum
5052 H32 achieves a balance between strength and formability, suitable for applications requiring medium strength and good corrosion resistance. In contrast, 5052 O is softer and more ductile, making it ideal for applications where ease of forming and high ductility are more important than strength.
| Category | 5052-H32 | 5052 O |
| Strength and Hardness | Provides medium strength and hardness, suitable for applications that balance strength and ductility. | Lower strength and hardness, but higher ductility and formability, making it easier to machine and form. |
| Applications | Used in applications needing good corrosion resistance and medium strength, such as marine environments, automotive parts, and pressure vessels. | Used in applications requiring high formability and ductility, such as in complex shapes and designs, where ease of forming is more important than strength. |
| Formability and Ductility | Generally lower ductility but still good formability, suitable for moderately complex shapes and designs. | High ductility, easy to form, enabling more complex shapes and designs. The softness makes it easier to machine, but the strength is lower. |
