Aluminium 5052 Fasteners are lightweight, corrosion-resistant fastening components manufactured from Aluminium Alloy 5052, an aluminium-magnesium alloy known for good corrosion resistance, workability, weldability, and useful fatigue performance. We supply Aluminium 5052 Fasteners in bolts, screws, studs, threaded rods, nuts, washers, and other configurations for industrial, marine, transportation, architectural, and general engineering applications.
5052-H32 Aluminum Fasteners are particularly useful where a balance of strength, low weight, corrosion resistance, and dimensional stability is required. Alloy 5052 is identified by UNS A95052 and is commonly associated with EN AW-5052 and Werkstoff 3.3523 designations.
We manufacture and supply aluminium fasteners in different sizes, thread configurations, head styles, finishes, and quantities. Material certificates, dimensional inspection reports, and other documentation can be supplied according to project requirements.
What Are Aluminium 5052 Fasteners?
Aluminium 5052 Fasteners are lightweight aluminium-magnesium bolts, screws, studs, nuts, and other fastening components offering good corrosion resistance, moderate strength, and useful fatigue performance. 5052-H32 is a commonly used strain-hardened temper for applications requiring improved strength while retaining the low density and corrosion resistance of Aluminium 5052.
Alloy 5052 has a density of approximately 2.68 g/cm³, making it significantly lighter than conventional steel fastening materials. Typical 5052-H32 data also shows good corrosion resistance and high fatigue strength, making the alloy suitable for many transportation, marine-related, outdoor, and general engineering applications.
What Is 5052 Aluminium Alloy?
5052 is a non-heat-treatable aluminium alloy belonging to the 5xxx aluminium-magnesium series. Magnesium is the principal alloying element, with chromium also present in controlled quantities.
The alloy is strengthened primarily through cold working rather than precipitation heat treatment. This is why tempers such as H32 are specified for products requiring increased strength compared with annealed 5052.
The alloy's chemical composition includes approximately 2.2–2.8% magnesium and 0.15–0.35% chromium, with aluminium making up the balance.
