Introduction of 5005 aluminum alloy

5005 is a non-heat treatable alloy with magnesium content. It can be strengthened (hardened) by cold working. It scores well in weld-ability, formability, and corrosion resistance (especially when anodized).Alloy 5005 aluminum plate sheet is a non-heat-treatable 0.8% magnesium alloy commonly available in flat rolled coil, sheet and plate from a wide range of producing mills. The 5000-series magnesium alloys have a high strengths because of the magnesium addition; 5005 has only a very small addition of magnesium so is the least strength of these series of alloys. The alloy is hardenable to a significant degree by cold working, enabling a series of “H” tempers but again these do not achieve the high strengths of corresponding tempers in other alloys such as 5052 or 5083.
Alloy 5005 aluminum plate sheet is not hardenable by heat treatment. It can be significantly hardened by cold work (eg by cold rolling) and various “H” tempers are produced – most commonly H32 (¼ Hard) and H34 (½ Hard) – as well as the soft annealed Temper O condition. The alloy spontaneously age-softens at room temperature immediately after cold work but will eventually reach a stable condition; all flat rolled mill products are supplied with stable properties. This is usually achieved by a stabilisation thermal treatment, either a low temperature thermal treatment or as a result of heat introduced during rolling, which results in the H3x tempers. H2x tempers are more
severely strain hardened and then partially annealed, again to quickly reach the required stable temper properties. To soften Alloy 5005 it can be annealed by heating to 345°C, hold until uniform temperature then cool; the rate of cooling is not important.

Feature of 5005 aluminum sheet

a.5005 aluminum sheet General Features
5005 is a non-heat treatable alloy with magnesium content. It can be strengthened (hardened) by cold working. It scores well in weld-ability, formability, and corrosion resistance (especially when anodized).
b.5005 aluminum sheet Forming
5005 has excellent formability, especially in softer tempers. Changyuan aluminum carriers 5005 H34 temper which is slightly harder and is comparable to 5052 H32 for forming.
c.5005 aluminum sheet Welding
5005 alloy is noted for excellent welding characteristics. When 5005 material will be welded and then anodized, Changyuan aluminum recommends a 5356 welding wire for best color uniformity. Weld discoloration can still occur, but it is less severe than other welding alloys.
d.5005 aluminum sheet Machining
5005 machine-ability is generally fairly poor . the machining of 5005 Soft tempers is worse than harder tempers. 5005 H34 and 5005 H38 can be machined, but with much more difficulty than many other aluminum alloys.
e.5005 aluminum sheet Anodising
All aluminium alloys can be anodised to improve corrosion resistance, but decorative anodising is only carried out on a few alloys. The most commonly decoratively anodised non-heat-treatable alloy is 5005. It is produced as a special “anodising quality” (AQ). It is most common and usually successful for general purpose quality (non-AQ) to be anodised; this can however result in some visually inconsistent anodising outcomes and in severe cases in “tiger stripe” appearance. It is always recommended that anodising performance be tested by trialling a piece from a batch of sheet.When anodised, film on 5005 is clearer and lighter than on 3003 and gives better colour match with 6063 architectural extrusions.
