PAMG-XR1 5052 Aluminum Honeycomb

Product catalog summary
Description: PAMG-XR1 5052 is an aerospace-grade aluminum honeycomb core material known for its lightweight, superior strength, and corrosion resistance. It is made from 5052 aluminum alloy foil and complies with AMS C7438 Rev A standards.
Applications: This honeycomb is used in various aerospace components such as aircraft floors, missile wings, and helicopter rotor blades. It is also suitable for energy absorption, EMI/RFI shielding, and applications requiring AMS C7438 Rev A compliance.
Corrosion Resistance: The chromated XR1 coating provides excellent protection in corrosive environments, meeting AMS C7438 Rev A, CL2 requirements.
Availability: Available in unexpanded blocks, slices, untrimmed expanded sheets, and cut-to-size expanded sheets, with or without cell perforations. Cell sizes range from 1/8" to 3/8", and densities from 1.0 pcf to 8.1 pcf.
Specifications: Sheet dimensions include a typical "Ribbon" length of 48" (max 72") and "Transverse" width of 96" (max 200"). Thickness can reach up to 34". Tolerances are specified for length, width, thickness, density, and cell size.
Features: The material is flame resistant, has high thermal conductivity, elevated use temperatures, and is resistant to moisture, corrosion, and fungi. It offers a low weight to high strength ratio.
Mechanical Properties: The document provides detailed mechanical properties, including strength and modulus for various cell sizes and densities.
Contact Information: Plascore Incorporated, Zeeland, MI, USA, and Plascore GmbH&CoKG, Germany, with contact details for both locations.
Quality Management: Plascore's quality management system is certified by Nadcap, AS/EN/JISQ 9100, ISO 9001:2008-C, and ISO 14001:2004.

PAMG-XR1 5052 Aluminum Honeycomb-1

PAMG-XR1 5052 Aluminum Honeycomb 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 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. PAMG-XR1 5052 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. • High thermal conductivity • Flame resistant • Fungi resistant • Low weight / High strength Cell Sizes: • Excellent moisture and corrosion resistance Tolerances: Length: Width: Thickness: Density: Cell Size: NOTE: + 6", - 0" + 6", - 0" ± .005" (under 4" thick) ± .062" (over 4" thick) ± 10% ± 10% Special dimensions, sizes, tolerances, CNC machining and die cut to size can be provided upon request. Corrosion Resistance: The chromated XR1 coating offers excellent protection for honeycomb cores exposed to corrosive environments, meeting the requirements of AMS C7438 Rev A, CL2. © 2017 Plascore, Inc.
