Hello EH!

Well, the numbers you've given for the mechanical properties are right out of the Aluminum Association's book on 5052-H34 aluminum sheet. So all you need to do is contact your local aluminum supplier and ask. Check the yellow pages, and take a drive. Places that have a minimum buy quantity may forgo that if they don't have to ship it.

Good luck!
