Corrosion Resistant Aluminum Alloy: 5083 and 5059

When it comes to marine aluminum plates, the most common one is 5083 aluminum plate, which belongs to aluminum-magnesium alloy. It is mainly used on the hull. It is characterized by high strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent weldability, good ductility, and can adapt well to the harsh marine environment.

5083 aluminum sheet is used in shipbuilding to not only reduce the weight of the ship, but also increase the load, improve the safety and service life of the ship, and is also economical. With the reduction of the weight of the ship, the running speed of the ship can be increased, bringing higher economic benefits.

In order to continuously improve the comprehensive performance of 5 series marine aluminum alloys, Europe, the United States and other countries have developed a variety of tempers such as H116, H321, H323, etc. through deformation heat treatment processes based on traditional alloys such as 5456, 5083, and 5086; on the other hand, they have continuously developed new 5 series aluminum alloys by optimizing alloy composition, such as 5383 registered in 1995 and 5059 aluminum alloy plate in 1999.

5059 aluminum alloy is the most advanced marine aluminum alloy, and it is also the most technically difficult high-end marine aluminum sheet recognized in the industry. 5059 aluminum alloy can be heat treated in O, T6 and other states. The strength is the highest in the T6 state, but the toughness is poor. After heat treatment in the T6 state, the hardness of 5059 aluminum alloy can reach 110~130HB.

5059 is an aluminum alloy with high strength, excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance. It has high strength, especially after heat treatment, it can obtain higher strength and hardness. 5059 aluminum alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and can maintain good appearance and performance for a long time in harsh environments.

5059 aluminum alloy can still maintain stable performance in high temperature environment, so it is suitable for applications under high temperature working conditions. 5059 aluminum alloy is easy to weld and can meet the needs of complex structures.
