Description
PAMG-XR1 5052 aerospace grade aluminum honeycomb is a lightweight core material which offers superior strength and corrosion resistance over commercial grade aluminum honeycomb. PAMG-XR1 5052 honeycomb is made from 5052 aluminum alloy foil and meets all the requirements of AMS C7438 Rev A.
Applications
PAMG-XR1 5052 aluminum honeycomb uses include aircraft floors, aircraft leading and trailing edges, missile wings, fan casings, fuel cells, fuselage components, helicopter rotor blades and navy bulkhead joiner panels, energy absorption, air/light directionalization and EMI/RFI shielding. PAMG-XR1 5052 honeycomb is suitable for applications where materials conforming to AMS C7438 Rev A are required.
Features:
- Low weight/High Strength
- Densities as low as 1.0 lb/ft3 (16 kg/m3)
- Excellent moisture and corrosion resistance
- Elevated use temperature
- High thermal conductivity
- Material can be perforated
- Flame resistant
- Fungi resistant
- Recyclable
- Long shelf life. The mechanical properties referenced are maintained for 15 years minimum if not exposed to moisture, weather or any normal hazard.
Availability
PAMG-XR1 5052 aluminum honeycomb is available in four forms: unexpanded blocks, unexpanded slices, untrimmed expanded sheets and cut to size expanded sheets. It is also available with or without cell perforations to facilitate cell venting for certain applications.
