5005 Aluminum Sheet Used For Anodizing Quanlity
5005 PROPERTIES:
General Features
5005 is a non-heat treatable alloy with magnesium content. It can be strengthened (hardened) by cold working. It scores well in weld-ability, formability, and corrosion resistance (especially when anodized).
Forming
5005 has excellent formability, especially in softer tempers. Henan TMR AL carriers 5005 H34 temper which is slightly harder and is comparable to 5052 H32 for forming.
Welding
5005 alloy is noted for excellent welding characteristics. When 5005 material will be welded and then anodized, we recommends a 5356 welding wire for best color uniformity. Weld discoloration can still occur, but it is less severe than other welding alloys.
Machining
5005 machinability is generally fairly poor. Soft 5005 tempers machine worse than harder tempers. 5005 H34 and 5005 H38 can be machined, but with much more difficulty than many other aluminum alloys.

The alloy you choose for your aluminum sheet naturally depends on your application. 5005 Aluminum sheet is often used when the material will be anodized and deployed in an architectural application like flashings, sills, curtain walls etc. Architects often specify 5005 alloy for anodized aluminum architectural metalwork.
DO NOT attempt to anodize aluminum alloys like 3003 or 3105 if you want the finish to be attractive and consistent. These alloys will show imperfections such as structural streaks, cloudiness, blemishes, and EXTREME color variation.
