5000 Series Pop Can Pull Tab Production Aluminum Alloy 5182 Coil

5000 Series Pop Can Pull Tab Production Aluminum Alloy 5182 Coil

5182 dominates pull-tab production due to its optimal balance of strength, formability, and

corrosion resistance, with specifications fine-tuned for high-speed production.

Main Characteristics of 5182 Aluminum Alloy

• Alloy Type: Al-Mg (aluminum-magnesium)

• Series: 5xxx series (non-heat-treatable)

• Density: ~2.68 g/cm³

• Excellent corrosion resistance – especially to moisture, acids, and salt

• Good cold workability – ideal for stamping and deep drawing

• Moderate-to-high strength – significantly stronger than typical can body alloys (3004/3104)

• Non-heat-treatable – strengthened through strain hardening instead of heat treatment

• Good weldability and recyclability

Temper Used for Pull Tabs

♦  5182-H19     H19 = Full hard temper

Achieved by cold working to the maximum strength level

Delivers maximum rigidity and springback, which is essential for functional, durable pull tabs

Excellent for high-speed stamping without cracking or deformation

Performance Advantages

✅ High strength 

     Withstands the force of finger pull without tearing or deforming

     Provides a secure mechanical interface with the scored lid

✅ Excellent formability

     Ideal for precision stamping and forming of complex tab shapes

     Ensures dimensional stability in mass production

✅ Good corrosion resistance

     Essential for beverages with acidic content or long shelf life

     Prevents tab degradation during storage or transport

✅ Lightweight and recyclable

     Supports weight reduction in packaging

     Enhances can recycling efficiency and sustainability
