Aluminum Alloy AL2 (AlMg5): Data Sheet, Chemical Composition, and Mechanical Properties

Engineering Data Sheet for AL2 (AlMg5) Alloy

AL2 alloy, known in European classification as AlMg5, is a wrought aluminum-magnesium system designed for operation in extreme conditions. Key technological advantages include outstanding resistance to corrosive processes, including salt spray and direct contact with seawater, as well as excellent weldability by all major methods. The engineering department of EV Group China certifies this alloy for the manufacture of critically important fasteners intended for use in aggressive chemical environments and high humidity.
