5182 automotive aluminum sheet

The application of aluminum in automobiles has a long history, especially with the development of lightweight automobiles. As a lightweight metal material, aluminum has gradually shown its advantages of corrosion resistance, easy processing, high strength, good load-bearing capacity, good heat dissipation, environmental protection, and recyclability, and has great development potential in the automotive field.

Aluminum alloys for automobiles are mainly concentrated in three aspects: automobile wheels, automobile engine gearbox housings, and automobile frames. In addition, there are some other types such as interiors and bottom sheets. 5182 aluminum sheet is one of the commonly used automotive aluminum sheet models. The main alloying element is magnesium. It has good forming and processing performance, corrosion resistance, weldability, and medium strength. It can be used for automobile fenders, engine hoods, automobile doors, automobile interiors, control panels, sunroof rails, etc. It has good stamping properties and can be processed into complex structural shapes.
