The difference between 5052 aluminum plate and 5083 aluminum plate
The metal content, especially the Mn and Mg content, varies widely, with 5083 having greater tensile and yield strengths than 5052.
| Alloy | Si | Fe | Cu | Mn | Mg | Cr | Zn |
| 5052 | 0+ | 0.4 | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.5-1.1 | 0.1 | 0.25 |
| 5083 | 0.4 | 0.4 | 0.1 | 0.3-1.0 | 4.0-4.9 | 0.05-0.25 | 0.25 |
5xxx series: 5000 series aluminum alloy represents 5052, 5005, 5083, 5A05 series. The weight of aluminum-magnesium alloy is lower than other series under the same area. It is also widely used in conventional industries. In my country, the 5000 (such as 5005) series aluminum plate belongs to one of the more mature aluminum plate series. The main features are low density, high tensile strength, high elongation and good fatigue strength, but cannot be strengthened by heat treatment.
5052 has good formability, corrosion resistance, candleability, fatigue strength and moderate static strength. It is used in the manufacture of aircraft fuel tanks, oil pipes, sheet metal parts for transportation vehicles and ships, instruments, street lamp brackets and rivets, and hardware products.
5083 is used in occasions requiring high corrosion resistance, good weldability and medium strength, such as welding parts of ships, automobiles and aircraft panels, pressure vessels requiring strict fire protection, refrigeration installations, TV towers, drilling equipment, transportation Equipment, missile elements, armor, etc.
