Aluminum sheet plate refers to a rectangular plate rolled from aluminum ingots. It is divided into pure aluminum plate, alloy aluminum plate, thin aluminum plate, medium-thick aluminum plate and patterned aluminum plate. Aluminum sheet generally refers to thin plates (thickness ≤ 6mm); Aluminum plate generally refers to medium-thick plates (thickness ≥ 6mm).
Aluminum sheet Vs Aluminum plate | |
Thin aluminum sheet | 0.15mm – 2.00mm |
Regular aluminum sheet | 2.00mm – 6.00mm |
Medium thick aluminum plate | 6.00mm – 25.00mm |
Thick aluminum plate | 25.00mm – 200mm |
5083 aluminum sheet plate and 5052 aluminum sheet plate belong to the AL-Mg alloy series, the main element is magnesium, and the magnesium content is between 3-5%. The tensile strength and yield strength of 5083 aluminum sheet plate is much stronger than 5052 aluminum sheet plate. Different chemical compositions lead to different mechanical properties, and different mechanical properties also lead to different uses between 5083 and 5052 aluminum sheet plate.
The main alloy element of 5083 aluminum plate is magnesium, which has excellent formability, corrosion resistance, weldability, and medium strength.
5052 aluminum sheet plate is a widely used anti-corrosion aluminum. It has high strength, especially fatigue resistance; has high plasticity and corrosion resistance, and cannot be strengthened by heat treatment; has good plasticity when hardened in a semi-cold state. When hardened, it has low plasticity, corrosion resistance, good weldability, poor cutting performance, and can be polished. 5052 aluminum sheet belongs to the hot-rolled aluminum plate series and can be subjected to deep oxidation processing.
Tensile strength of 5083 aluminum plate σb (MPa): 110-136
Tensile strength of 5052 aluminum plate σb (MPa): 170-305
5083 aluminum plates are mainly used in ships, automobiles and aircraft welding parts, subways/light rails, pressure vessels (such as liquid tank trucks, oil tank trucks, refrigerated trucks, refrigerated containers), refrigeration equipment, etc.
5052 aluminum plates are mainly used to manufacture fuel tanks, oil pipes, transportation vehicles, electrical casings, ship metal panels, hardware products, etc.
