Value Collection 32004764 Aluminum Sheet 5052-H32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32004764 is a flat aluminum sheet cut to 12 inches by 12 inches with a thickness of 0.05 inches, made from 5052-H32 alloy. Alloy 5052-H32 is a strain-hardened aluminum known for good corrosion resistance, moderate strength, and excellent formability, making it well-suited for sheet metal fabrication work. This sheet is commonly used in HVAC ductwork fabrication, custom enclosure panels, flashing, and general trade repair applications where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant flat stock is needed. It is handled by sheet metal fabricators, HVAC installers, and maintenance technicians who cut, bend, or form flat stock on the job.

This sheet is appropriate for light-gauge fabrication tasks in residential and light commercial settings. Typical applications include custom patches, backing panels, duct transitions, and enclosure repairs. The 12-inch square format and 0.05-inch gauge make it easy to cut with standard aviation snips or a nibbler without specialized equipment. No specific model compatibility applies, as this is raw flat stock sold for general fabrication use.

Key Features

• 5052-H32 alloy provides good corrosion resistance, suitable for both interior and exterior applications
• 0.05-inch thickness is a common light gauge compatible with hand tools and bench brakes
• 12-inch x 12-inch format minimizes waste for small repair and fabrication jobs
• Strain-hardened temper (H32) offers improved stiffness compared to fully annealed sheet
• Weighs approximately 0.69 pounds per sheet, easy to handle and transport on the job

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose flat stock for sheet metal fabrication, repair, and custom panel work across HVAC, plumbing, and light construction trades.

Installation Notes

Cut using aviation snips, a nibbler, or a metal-cutting blade rated for aluminum sheet stock. Deburr all cut edges before installation to prevent injury and to ensure clean fits. When using this sheet in HVAC or mechanical enclosure applications, verify that any fasteners or adhesives used are compatible with aluminum to avoid galvanic corrosion. Always wear appropriate cut-resistant gloves when handling sheet metal.
