Description
Aluminium 5754 Sheets / Plates
Aluminium 5754 Sheets & Plates is a Aluminium Magnesium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-magnesium family (5000 or 5xxx series). As a wrought alloy, it can be formed by rolling, extrusion, and forging, but not casting. It can be cold worked to produce tempers with a higher strength but a lower ductility.
Aluminium 5754 has excellent corrosion resistance especially to seawater and industrially polluted atmospheres.
It has higher strength than 5251. This high strength makes 5754 highly suited to flooring applications

Temper Types of 5757 :
The most common tempers for 5754 aluminium are shown below with H114 & H111 being the most common treadplate temper
- • O – Soft
• H111 – Some work hardening imparted by shaping processes but less than required for H11 temper
• H22 – Work hardened by rolling then annealed to quarter hard
• H24 – Work hardened by rolling then annealed to half hard
• H26 – Work hardened by rolling then annealed to three-quarter hard
