ALUMINUM 5754 GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
What is aluminum 5754?
Aluminum 5754 was a common European alloy often designated “AlMg3”, and is now often specified for applications in the USA. It is an aluminum alloy with magnesium as the primary alloying element, supplemented with small chromium and/or manganese additions. It has good formability when in the fully soft, annealed temper and can be work-hardened to very high strength levels. It is slightly stronger, but less ductile, than 5052 alloy. It is used in a multitude of engineering and automotive applications.
