An alloy’s temper refers to the hardening it undergoes to achieve specific mechanical properties. The most popular temper of aluminum 5086 sheet is H32. Other grades include:
O represents the softest temper, while H116 is the hardest. Dimensions vary based on the specific temper you need.
Aluminum 5086 sheet contains the following chemical composition:
| SI | CU | MN | MG | CR | ZN | Other |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.40% | 0.35% | 0.10% | 0.20-0.70% | 3.5-4.5% | 0.10-0.20% | 0.05-.10% |
The remaining balance is aluminum.
Mechanical properties for 5086 sheet aluminum vary by temper. Tensile strengths range from 250 megapascals (MPa) for O temper to 350 MPa for H116. Hardness can vary from 70 HB to 85 HB according to the Brinell scale.
