5000 series aluminum sheet such as 5052-H32, H34, and 5083 h111aluminum sheets has higher fatigue strength, excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine applications, and has workability.
5052 aluminum sheet is commonly used to make fuel tanks.
Excellent corrosion resistance makes 5 series alloys widely used in maritime applications such as ships, as well as automobiles, aircraft welded parts, subway light rail, pressure vessels requiring strict fire protection (such as liquid tankers, refrigerated trucks, refrigerated containers), refrigeration units, television towers, drilling equipment, transportation equipment, armor, etc.
