5005-H34 aluminum alloy refers to the 5005 series aluminum alloy in the H34 temper. To achieve this temper, the aluminum alloy first undergoes a strain hardening process and is then stabilized to maintain its properties.
The strength of 5005 H34 aluminum alloy lies between that of the annealed (O) state and the full hard (H38) state.
The 5005 H34 temper achieves a balance between strength and workability, offering higher strength than the annealed state while maintaining relatively good workability and toughness.

Exterior Cladding: Used for decorative and protective cladding on building exteriors, providing an attractive appearance and excellent structural stability.
Architectural Details: Suitable for various interior and exterior decorative elements such as curtain walls, canopies, and window frames. Its corrosion resistance and ease of processing enhance the building's appearance and durability.
Body Components: As a key material in automotive manufacturing, 5005 H34 aluminum plates help reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency, and enhance corrosion resistance, extending the lifespan of the vehicle body.
Transportation Parts: Widely used in structural and decorative components of trucks, boats, and railway vehicles, meeting the demands for lightweight and durability.
Used for manufacturing the casings of household appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, and microwaves. Its durability and ease of cleaning ensure long-term use of the products.
Strain Hardening: In this stage, 5005 aluminum alloy is made harder and stronger through cold working or mechanical deformation. This process changes the metal's lattice structure, thereby increasing its resistance to deformation and strength.
Stabilization Treatment: After strain hardening, the 5005 aluminum alloy undergoes stabilization treatment. This step, achieved through heat treatment or natural aging, reduces or eliminates internal stresses generated during strain hardening while maintaining a certain level of strength.
5005-H34 offers good formability and corrosion resistance for decorative purposes, while 5052-H32 provides higher strength and superior corrosion resistance, making it suitable for more demanding structural applications.
