- 5052-H32 Aluminum Construction
- ASTM B209 Certified
- 33,000 PSI Tensile Strength
- Excellent Formability & Corrosion Resistance
5052 aluminum is a non-heat-treatable alloy with magnesium as its primary alloying element, providing high fatigue strength and excellent weldability. This H32 temper sheet has been strain-hardened and stabilized to a quarter-hard state, balancing strength with ductility. It meets ASTM B209 specifications and is a top choice for parts requiring significant forming without cracking.
Classified as a small-thickness sheet, this 0.040" material is perfectly suited for applications like lightweight electronic enclosures, formed brackets, decorative panels, and HVAC ductwork. Its excellent surface finish also makes it suitable for architectural flashing where both performance and appearance are important.

Target Users
Fabricators, marine manufacturers, and automotive customizers rely on 5052-H32 sheet for its excellent workability and durability in demanding environments throughout the Los Angeles area.
Finish Options
This product comes standard with a mill finish in the H32 temper. 5052 aluminum responds very well to anodizing, which enhances corrosion resistance and allows for various colors. It can also be painted or powder-coated after proper surface preparation. Contact our Los Angeles sales team for custom finish inquiries.
