Mill Finish Marine 5052 O Temper Aluminum Round Bar

5052 O Temper Aluminum Round Bar Rod Used In Marine Applications

Magnesium is the primary alloying agent in the 5052 series and is one of the most effective and widely used alloying elements for aluminum. Alloys in this series possess moderate to high strength characteristics, as well as good weldablilityand resistance to corrosion in the marine environment. Because of this, aluminum-magnesium alloys are widely used in building and construction, storage tanks, pressure vessels and marine applications.
