What is the difference between 5052 aluminum plate and 6061 aluminum plate

5052 aluminum plate and 6061 aluminum plate are commonly used aluminum plates. Although they are alloy aluminum plates, there are still obvious differences

The processing conditions and alloy elements of these two kinds of aluminum plates are different from each other from performance to use. 5052 aluminum plate has a wide range of applications. It has fatigue resistance, high plasticity and corrosion resistance. It cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. It has good plasticity, low cold working plasticity, good corrosion resistance, good weldability, poor machinability and can be polished. 6061 aluminum plate has good corrosion resistance, weldability and good oxidation effect. It is widely used in various industrial building parts requiring certain strength and high corrosion resistance. 6061 aluminum plate is mainly used in places with high strength requirements, while 5052 aluminum plate is a rust proof aluminum alloy, mainly used in environments with rust proof requirements.

Difference of alloy elements: 5052 alloy element is magnesium, while 6061 alloy element contains silicon in addition to magnesium. In addition, the processing state is different. Except that 6061 aluminum plate and 5052 aluminum plate are both in o state, 6061 aluminum plate is generally in T6 and T651 state, and 5052 aluminum plate is generally in H112 state Status H24, H32.

5052 Tensile strength of mechanical properties of aluminum plate σ B (MPa): ≤ 225 elongation δ 5 (%): ≥ 10 6061 Tensile strength of mechanical properties of aluminum plate σ B (MPa): ≥ 180 yield point σ 0.2 (MPa): ≥ 110 elongation δ 5 (%)：≥14

5052 aluminum plate can be bent, and 6061 aluminum plate has high hardness and is generally used for abrasive tools. Both of them have good oxidation effect. 6061 aluminum plate is much harder than 5052 aluminum plate, but the bending resistance and plasticity of 5052 aluminum plate are much stronger than those of Series 6 aluminum plate, so we should treat them differently in practical application.
