Full Version: What is the difference between 5052 aluminum plate and 5754 aluminum plate?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
The 5052 aluminum plate and the 5754 aluminum plate belong to the 5 series aluminum plate sequence. The main alloying elements of the two are aluminum-magnesium alloys, but there are certain differences between the two products. The reason for this difference is due to the different alloy compositions. Caused.
The magnesium content of 5052 is slightly higher than that of 5754, so the hardness of 5052 is better than that of 5754, and the toughness of 5754 is better than that of 5052. In addition, the silicon content of 5754 is more than that of 5052. The silicon content affects the forging function and corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy, so The 5754 aluminum plate has better forging function and corrosion resistance.
The difference in alloying properties between 5052 and 5754 makes the performance change between the two, which also makes the use of the two different. 5754 aluminum plate is widely used in welding structure, storage tank, pressure Containers, ship structures and offshore installations, transport tanks and applications where excellent processability, excellent corrosion resistance, high fatigue strength, high weldability and moderate static strength are required. The 5052 aluminum plate is mainly used for high plasticity and good weldability. It is also commonly used in transportation vehicles, ship sheet metal parts, instruments, street lamp brackets and rivets, hardware products, electrical enclosures, etc.
Finally, the price difference between the two is also different, the price of 5754 aluminum plate is higher than the price of 5052 aluminum plate, the above is the difference analysis between 5502 aluminum plate, 5052 and 5754.
