Technical characteristics of 5052 aluminum alloy tubing
As a corrosion-resistant aluminum tubing, 5052 aluminum tubing is particularly well suited for use in marine environments. The alloy is particularly good at resisting corrosion in seawater environments and is commonly used in equipment such as evaporative condensers in desalination systems.The technical characteristics of 5052 aluminum tubing include:
Cold-drawn seamless tubing: ensures high strength and quality.
Elemental control: Strict control of the content of elements such as silicon, zinc, copper and iron ensures the stability of material properties.
Rare earth element reconstruction: Reconstruct Mg2Al3 and Mg5Al8 by adding rare earth elements to improve the corrosion resistance of the material.
Beautiful corrosion curve: excellent corrosion performance in seawater test.
Application areas and working conditions
5052 aluminum tubing is widely used in a variety of equipment and structures that require corrosion resistance and high fatigue strength. Specific application areas include:
Seawater desalination systems: particularly suitable for low-temperature multi-effect distillation desalination systems (LT-MED), which can be operated at a maximum temperature of 75°C, a maximum pressure of -0.1 MPa, and a working medium of 7% seawater and steam.
Ship and marine components: Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, 5052 aluminum tubing is widely used in ships and other marine components.
Fuel and oil lines: Suitable for fuel and oil lines in aircraft and other transportation vehicles due to its high strength and good vibration resistance.
Industrial and domestic equipment: including sheet metal working, electrical appliances and lighting equipment.
