5154 aluminium alloy


5154 aluminium alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminium-magnesium family. As an aluminium-magnesium alloy, it combines moderate-to-high strength with excellent weldability. 5154 aluminium is commonly used in welded structures such as pressure vessels and ships. 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. It is generally not clad.
Alternate names and designations include AlMg3.5, N5, and A95154. The alloy and its various tempers are covered by the following standards:
The alloy composition of 5154 aluminium is:
The similar alloy A5254 differs only in impurities limits.
