5052 Aluminum Rod 15mm Dia Extruded Temper H32 Tolerance +/-0.05mm CNC Turning Stock
Product Spotlights
We at Hemaokang Steel (Shandong) Co., Ltd. take pride in offering precision-engineered 5052 Aluminum Rods designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern machining workshops. Our 15mm diameter extruded rods, supplied in H32 temper with a tight tolerance of ±0.05mm, deliver the consistency and machinability that CNC turning operations require. With this product, we aim to provide manufacturers with a dependable raw material that minimizes setup time, reduces waste, and ensures repeatable accuracy across production runs. It is an ideal choice for machining facilities seeking a balanced combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and workability.
Material Overview
5052 aluminum alloy is widely recognized for its good corrosion resistance, especially in marine and humid environments, combined with moderate-to-high strength and good fatigue resistance. Because it contains magnesium as the primary alloying element, 5052 offers good formability and weldability, which makes it a versatile material for a wide range of applications. The H32 temper further enhances the material by strain hardening and then stabilizing it through a controlled thermal process, resulting in a material state that is easier to machine and dimensionally stable during processing.
Key Product Features
- Dimensional Accuracy: Diameter tolerance controlled within ±0.05mm, ensuring consistent machining allowance along the rod length.
- Temper Consistency: H32 condition delivers stable mechanical properties, reducing the risk of distortion during cutting.
- Clean Surface: Smooth extruded surface provides a dependable starting condition for CNC turning.
- Batch Uniformity: Rigorous internal checks help maintain consistent chemical composition and mechanical performance across different batches.

Precision and Tolerance
The ±0.05mm diameter tolerance of this rod is a key attribute for CNC turning facilities. This level of precision allows machinists to consistently achieve required finished part dimensions while keeping material removal uniform across the entire length. It supports faster machine setup because the starting stock diameter is known and controlled within a narrow band, which means less test cutting and fewer rejected parts.
H32 Temper Advantage
The H32 temper represents a strain-hardened condition followed by partial annealing, which produces a material that is stronger than the fully annealed O-temper but still retains a suitable level of ductility. For machining applications, H32 offers good chip formation, reduced burring, and improved surface finish on turned parts. Additionally, the temper stabilizes the alloy's mechanical properties, ensuring that rod stock performs consistently from batch to batch.
Ideal CNC Turning Stock
Supplied as CNC turning stock, this 5052 aluminum rod is tailored for machining operations such as turning, milling, drilling, and threading. The 15mm diameter is a commonly requested size for applications like pulleys, fasteners, shaft collars, couplings, fittings, and various precision components. Using a pre-sized, tightly toleranced rod reduces processing time, conserves material, and improves the economics of high-volume part production.
Typical Applications

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is 5052 aluminum alloy commonly used for?
5052 aluminum is widely used in marine components, fuel tanks, electronic enclosures, automotive parts, and light-duty structural applications. Its high corrosion resistance and good weldability make it a practical choice for manufacturing and fabrication across many industries.
Q2: What does the H32 temper indicate?
H32 means the alloy has been strain-hardened and then partially annealed to achieve a stable state. This results in a good balance between strength and ductility, and it is a preferred temper for machining because of its consistent mechanical behavior and reduced deformation during cutting.
Q3: Can the 15mm rod be supplied in custom lengths?
Yes. We can provide standard lengths as well as custom cut-to-length options based on your requirements. Please mention your desired length when submitting an inquiry so that we can confirm availability and optimize packaging for your order.
Q4: What is the diameter tolerance of this rod?
The diameter tolerance is ±0.05mm. This tight tolerance reduces material waste and speeds up CNC setup, as the incoming stock dimension is consistent throughout the entire length.
Q5: Do you offer additional machining services?
While our primary focus is supplying precision rod stock, we can discuss additional processing needs on a case-by-case basis. Please contact us with your specific machining or finishing requirements, and we will let you know if we can accommodate them.
Q6: What quality checks are performed before shipment?
Each batch undergoes dimensional measurement and surface inspection to ensure compliance with the stated specifications. Our quality management system follows ISO9001, which supports consistent process control and continuous improvement in production and inspection.
Q7: How are the rods packaged for export?
Rods are bundled securely, protected with appropriate wrapping to prevent surface damage, and packed in export-standard condition suitable for sea freight. Custom packing requirements can be accommodated if specified in advance.
Q8: What information should I provide when making an inquiry?
To provide a timely and accurate quotation, please include the alloy grade, diameter, target length or cutting details, quantity, and any specific surface or packaging requirements. This allows our team to confirm availability, lead time, and shipping costs more efficiently.
