5049 aluminum sheet is a non-heat treatable aluminum. Its primary alloying element is magnesium which results in good hardness.
While this aluminum alloy is not heat treatable, it is work hardenable by cold forming, showing good strength and formability. This aluminum grade t is available in a range of tempers which increase the alloy’s overall strength at the expense of ductility.
It is seen in the marine, automotive, construction, and packaging industries.
Applications for this alloy include shipbuilding hulls and structures, packaging, tanks, and automotive parts.
It has good machinability.
It has good weldability.
It is not heat treatable.
