The 5052 aluminum alloy contains the following elements:
| SI | FE | CU | MN | MG | CR | ZN | Other |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.25% | 0.40% | 0.10% | 0.10% | 2.20-2.80% | 0.15-0.35% | 0.10% | 0.15% |
The remaining balance is aluminum.
The 5052 alloy’s mechanical properties, such as fatigue strength and shear strength, depend largely upon its temper. Elongation percentages also vary based on temper and gauge, with the higher tempers displaying less elongation potential overall.
