ALUMINUM 5154, formerly known as Aluminum A54S, is a strong, nonheat-treatable alloy recommended for use in unfired pressure vessels. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and shear strength as well as fatigue. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: Al-64. Producer or source: Aluminum Company of America.

PERALUMAN 300 is a 5754 aluminum alloy in the wrought aluminum-magnesium family (5000 or 5xxx series). It is closely related to the alloys 5154 and 5454 (Aluminum Association designations that only differ in the second digit are variations on the same alloy). Of the three 5x54 alloys, 5754 is the least alloyed (highest composition % of aluminum), but only by a small amount. It is used in similar applications. As 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. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance and surface qualities as well as forming, machining, and joining. Filing Code: Al-454. Producer or source: Lamineries Matthey SA.

Aluminum 5456 is an aluminum-magnesium alloy suitable for structural welding applications. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and shear strength as well as fatigue. It also includes information on forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: Al-70. Producer or source: Aluminum Company of America.

TENZALOY is an aluminum casting alloy developed for its high-strength and self-aging characteristics for castings that must have good dimensional stability and good corrosion resistance. Large and small intricate castings can be made without the danger of distortion associated with heat treatment. This alloy has such a high melting point that it can be brazed at temperatures up to 1100 F. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, tensile properties, and compressive and shear strength as well as fracture toughness and fatigue. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as casting, heat treating, machining, and surface treatment. Filing Code: Al-15.
