Boikanyo Sheets and Plates, located in Cape Town, South Africa, stands out as a top manufacturer and supplier of premium aluminium products, including Aluminium 5052 Plates and Sheets. These products are highly regarded for their remarkable corrosion resistance, impressive strength-to-weight ratio, and exceptional workability. Boikanyo guarantees that all Aluminium 5052 materials are produced to meet international standards, ensuring durability and performance across various industries. Whether utilized in marine, automotive, architectural, or general fabrication applications, Boikanyo’s Aluminium 5052 Plates and Sheets provide dependable performance, precise finishing, and consistent mechanical properties for both structural and decorative purposes.
Aluminium 5052 Plates and Sheets consist of about 2.2–2.8% magnesium and 0.15–0.35% chromium, along with trace amounts of iron, silicon, and copper. This alloy, which isn’t heat-treatable, boasts excellent corrosion resistance, especially in saltwater settings. It typically has a tensile strength ranging from 210–260 MPa and a yield strength between 130–200 MPa, depending on the temper (usually H32 or H34). Elongation falls between 7–12%. The alloy is also known for its great weldability and moderate-to-high fatigue strength. Aluminium 5052 is particularly easy to bend, roll, and form, making it perfect for components that need both strength and versatility in shaping.
