Aluminum is ideal for aircraft manufacture because it’s lightweight and strong. Aluminum is roughly a third the weight of steel, allowing an aircraft to carry more weight and or become more fuel efficient. Furthermore, aluminum’s high resistance to corrosion ensures the safety of the aircraft and its passengers.
5052 aluminum sheet can be also used for aircraft. It has higher fatigue strength, good corrosion resistance and mechanical weldability. It is very good for cold working and plasticity, and has medium strength and tensile resistance.
5052 aluminum sheet has excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine applications, with excellent workability. It is widely used in the manufacture of fuel tanks, oil pipes, sheet metal parts for transportation vehicles and ships, meters, street lamp brackets and rivets, hardware products, electrical enclosures, molds, etc.

It is often used in electronic parts, industrial chemicals, science and technology aviation, military energy, etc.
In aerospace field, it is often used for the interior parts of the airplane such as seats, cabinets, dining cars,etc.
1. The surface is not allowed to have cracks, corrosion spots, peeling, bubbles and traces of nitrate salt, and there must be no rolling marks.
2. The surface is not allowed to have local mechanical damage whose depth does not exceed 1% of the actual size. If yes, the maximum depth cannot exceed 0.02mm.
Light weight. The aircraft aluminum greatly reduces the weight of an airplane for its density is only one third that of the steel. A lighter body enables the airplane carry more weight or save energy consumption.
High strength. Aluminum’s strength allows it to replace heavier metals without the loss of strength associated with other metals, while benefitting from its lighter weight.
Excellent corrosion resistance. For an aircraft and its passengers, corrosion can be extremely dangerous. 5052 aluminum sheet has excellent corrosion resistance, which is suitable for working in extremely harsh environment.
The total amount of aluminum ore in China is about 735 million tons, concentrated in the four provinces of Shanxi, Guizhou, Henan and Guangxi, accounting for 90.9% of the country’s total reserves. Haomei Aluminum is located in Henan Province. With rich and quality resources and low labor cost, we can offer you high cost effective aircraft aluminum sheet.
