High-magnesium aluminum sheet with excellent corrosion resistance, weldability and fatigue strength. The standard choice for marine, automotive and pressure-vessel applications.
5052 aluminum sheet is an Al-Mg alloy (≈ 2.5 % Mg) in H32 strain-hardened and stabilized temper. It combines medium strength, outstanding atmospheric and seawater corrosion resistance, and good formability — widely used where 1060 or 3003 is not strong enough.

Applications
5052 sheet is used in ship hulls and superstructures, pressure vessels, fuel tanks, truck and bus body panels, brake shoes, kitchen equipment, signage and road signs, and automotive trim. For higher-strength structural plate, see our 6061-T6 aluminum plate; for anti-rust general use, see 3003 aluminum plate.
Processing & Packaging
Shearing, cutting, bending, punching and CNC machining are available. Every sheet is covered with a blue or white protective PVC film and strapped on plywood pallets for ocean shipment.
