5082 aluminum wire (AlMg4.5) is a non-heat-treatable 5xxx wire that combines good strength, excellent formability, and reliable corrosion resistance. Supplied in O, H18, and H38 tempers, it is suited to rivets, fasteners, welded fabricated parts, and forming operations that need tight dimensional control. Linsy draws 5082 wire in diameters from 0.8 to 12 mm with MTC supplied on every coil.

5082 aluminum wire is drawn from the same AlMg4.5 alloy used for 5082 sheet and plate, but delivered as coiled or spooled wire. Being non-heat-treatable, its strength is set by the temper: O is soft and formable, H18 is strain-hardened to a medium level, and H38 is the strongest of the three. The wire keeps the alloy’s good corrosion resistance and weldability, making it useful for rivets, fasteners, and welded assemblies.
Note that 5082 wire is distinct from aluminum welding filler wire (such as 5356); 5082 wire is supplied for mechanical and forming use rather than as a welding consumable, though it can be used where its composition is acceptable to the procedure.
Linsy draws 5082 wire in the following ranges. Other diameters and coil formats can be negotiated.

Strain-hardened 5082 wire reaches useful tensile strengths while staying light.
Retains the alloy’s seawater and industrial-atmosphere corrosion resistance.
O temper forms readily; the alloy welds well with 5xxx fillers where welding is required.
Drawn to tight diameter tolerances and supplied on coils or spools for automated feeding.
Every 5082 wire coil ships with a Mill Test Certificate (MTC) covering chemical composition and mechanical properties. SGS or third-party test reports are available on request. Linsy’s production is managed under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 systems.
Linsy is a Shenzhen-based aluminum supplier with more than 20 years of experience across the 1000-8000 series. For 5082 wire we offer in-house drawing, straightening, spooling, and cut-to-length, with typical custom lead times of 10-60 days depending on diameter and quantity. MTC is supplied with every order.
For deeper technical background on 5082 and related alloys, see the following resources from Linsy’s knowledge library:
Common tempers are O (soft), H18 (medium strength), and H38 (highest strength of the three).
No. 5082 wire is supplied for mechanical and forming use; 5356 is a dedicated welding filler alloy with a different composition. Use the filler specified by your welding procedure.
Typical diameters are 0.8-12 mm, with tolerances around ±0.05 mm. Other sizes can be quoted on request.
It can be anodized, but 5xxx alloys produce a grey tone; powder coating is often preferred for appearance.
Typical custom lead time is 10-60 days depending on diameter, temper, and quantity.
MOQs depend on diameter and coil format. Smaller stock sizes may have lower MOQs; fully custom sizes are quoted per enquiry.
Yes. An MTC is supplied with every order, and SGS or third-party inspection reports can be arranged on request.
Production is managed under ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 systems. Material can be supplied to ASTM, EN, GB, and JIS standards on request.
Yes. 5082 wire is available as coil, spool, or straightened cut-to-length pieces.
