What Are Uses of Aluminum 5083 5052 in Automobile Industry

The density of aluminum is small (2.7g/cm³), which is about 1/3 of steel (7.8g/cm³). Replacing steel with aluminum alloy can reduce weight by about 50%. Since the surface of aluminum is easily oxidized to form a dense and stable oxide film (passivation), it has good corrosion resistance. Aluminum has good castability.

Because aluminum has a low melting temperature and good fluidity, it is easy to manufacture parts of various complex shapes. Aluminum alloys can increase strength and hardness relative to pure aluminum.

The frame design is basically a secondary design based on the original steel frame, and the raw materials are mature 5 series and 6 series aluminum alloys. The aluminum alloy frame is about 40% lighter than the steel frame, which greatly improves the lightweight level of the entire vehicle. 5xxx aluminum alloys for car making are 5052, 5005 and 5083.

Aluminum 5083 plate has high strength, high plasticity and weldability, and is not easily deformed during processing. With its excellent properties, 5083 aluminum alloy is widely used in the field of automobile manufacturing, such as inner body panels, compartment panels, air reservoirs, automobile bottom guards, new energy vehicle battery side panels, etc.

The corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy coal cars is much stronger than that of steel cars, which can greatly reduce the maintenance costs of the cars. This advantage is particularly prominent when transporting coal with high sulfur content. At the same time, because the surface of the aluminum alloy is smooth, it is conducive to unloading coal. The C80 coal truck is riveted with 6mm-8mm 5083-H32 alloy plates and reinforced profiles.

The tanker body of the aluminum alloy oil semi-trailer is made of 5083 6mm aluminum sheet, the front and rear heads are made of 5083 7mm aluminum sheet. Equipped with a European standard tank cover, an all-aluminum spare tire rack, an all-aluminum tool box, an aluminum alloy frame and side and rear protection, the weight of the vehicle body is greatly reduced while ensuring quality.

5052 aluminum sheet is used in the body skin of a large new energy bus. The bus skin can be made of 5052 h32 aluminum sheet with a thickness of 1.5mm. 5052 aluminum plate is an aluminum-magnesium alloy aluminum plate with high strength, especially fatigue strength, plasticity and corrosion resistance.

5052 aluminum plate also contains a small amount of chromium. The role of chromium is similar to that of manganese. It can improve the resistance to stress corrosion cracking of the base metal and welds, increase the strength of the base metal and welds, and reduce the tendency of welding cracks. These properties meet the corrosion resistance and fatigue strength requirements of the aluminum plate for the bus skin.
