3003 aluminum plate and 5052 aluminum plate are two kinds of alloy aluminum plates commonly used in the market, and they are also two common aluminum plate products of Henan Flait Aluminum Co., Ltd. The thickness of 3003 aluminum plate produced by our company is 0.2-4.5mm, which is mostly used for power battery shells, mobile phone shells, etc.; the thickness of 5052 aluminum plate is 0.15-600mm, which is often used in GIS high-voltage switches, marine sheet metal and other places. The following takes 3003H24 aluminum plate and 5052H24 aluminum plate as examples to introduce the differences between these two aluminum plates.Click to Order
| Alloy | Si | Fe | Cu | Zn | Mn | Mg | Cr | Al |
| 3003 | 0.60 | 0.70 | 0.05-0.20 | 0.10 | 1.0-1.5 | – | – | Remainder |
| 5052 | ≤0.25 | ≤0.40 | ≤0.10 | ≤0.10 | ≤0.10 | 2.2-2.8 | 0.15-0.35 | Remainder |
In terms of chemical composition, 3003h24 aluminum plate is an aluminum-manganese alloy. Due to the increase in manganese content, 3003 aluminum plate has excellent corrosion resistance and processability. The 5052h24 aluminum plate is an aluminum-magnesium alloy. Due to the increase in magnesium content, the 5052 aluminum plate has higher strength and corrosion resistance. Moreover, the aluminum content of 3003 aluminum plate is slightly higher than that of 5052 aluminum plate.
| Alloy | Temper | Thickness(mm) | Mechanical properties | |
| Tensile Strength（Mpa） | Yield strength Rp0.2(MPa) | |||
| 3003 | H24 | 0.2-4.5 | 145-195 | ≥115 |
| 5052 | H24 | 0.15-600 | 230-280 | 150 |
In terms of mechanical properties, the tensile strength of 5052H24 aluminum plate is much higher than that of 3003H24 aluminum plate, and the yield strength is also higher than that of the other side, so the performance of 5052 aluminum plate is significantly better than that of 3003 aluminum plate.
3003 aluminum sheet is usually used in the fields of power battery case, mobile phone case, can making, restaurant utensils, building panels and decoration materials, etc. Due to its excellent processing performance, it is widely used in the field of construction and decoration. The 3003 aluminum plate is mainly thin plate, and the application of thick plate is not much. 5052 aluminum sheet is commonly used in electrical casings, transportation vehicles, pressure vessels, etc. It is a common material for manufacturing automobiles, aircraft fuel tanks, and oil pipes. It is also suitable for spraying and processing into special sheet materials. In addition to thin plates, 5052 aluminum plates are also widely used in thick plates.
