Note: 5754 is an alloy which spontaneously softens after rolling until it reaches a stable condition. Where necessary this process is accelerated by means of a stabilising anneal, whereby the stable condition is achieved before shipment The F tempers are stabilised after strain hardening; the G tempers are partially annealed.

Modulus of Elasticity: 69,000 MPa

Bend Radii: Minimum recommended internal bend radii for 90º cold bends at right angle to the rolling direction.

Welding: 5754 is readily welded by the TIG and MIG processes using 5356 filler alloy. Welding 5754 in the F or G tempers will reduce the tensile and yield strengths in the heat-affected zone to those of the annealed condition.

5754 may also be gas welded or resistance welded, but the resulting joints are not as strong or as corrosion resistant as the inert gas welded joints. It is essential that all traces of welding flux are removed by scrubbing with hot water upon completion.

Annealing: 350ºC ± 5ºC, until all parts have reached the annealing temperature.

Weight Calculation: Weight per square metre in kilogrammes: 2.68 x thickness in mm.
