Applications & Use Cases
Product Details
5052 H32 aluminum sheet and plate is a marine-grade Al-Mg alloy in the 5000 series. It is non-heat-treatable and contains 2.2–2.8% magnesium .The H32 temper is strain-hardened and stabilized to about one-quarter hard. It provides medium-high strength and good formability. This balance makes it a versatile choice for tanks and marine components. It also works well for automotive parts and electronics enclosures. It is also used in chemical equipment.
Key Features
- Marine-Grade Corrosion Resistance — excellent resistance to seawater, industrial atmospheres and most chemicals.
- Excellent Weldability — clean, strong welds with standard MIG/TIG processes (e.g., ER5356 filler).
- Good Formability — bends, stamps and deep-draws reliably without cracking.
- Medium-High Strength — stronger than 5052-O while retaining workability.
- Lightweight — density of only ~2.68 g/cm³.
- Surface-Friendly — accepts anodizing, stucco and anti-slip treatments.

FAQ
It is widely used for marine components, fuel and hydraulic tanks, chemical equipment, and automotive panels. It is also used for electronics enclosures and HVAC parts. This is due to its marine-grade corrosion resistance and excellent weldability.
H32 means the aluminum is strain-hardened and stabilized to about one-quarter hard. It is stronger than annealed (O) temper. It still keeps good formability.
5052 has better corrosion resistance and formability. It is also easier to weld. 6061 can be heat-treated and is stronger. For saltwater and tank applications, 5052 is usually preferred.
