Marine Grade Metals and Alloy for Jon Boat

A jon boat is a special class of aluminum fishing boat with a flat or nearly flat bottom. The chosen marine grade metals are aluminum alloy. The aluminum sheet or jon boat floor chooses marine grade aluminum tread plate like 5052, 5083 or 6061.

6061 aluminum tread plate is a kind of checkered aluminum plate with high hardness. In the T6 state, the hardness is around 95HB. When choosing this patterned aluminum plate, you must pay attention to whether there is any bending in the processing process for its being performance is not good.

5xxx aluminum checker plates are processed with 5-series aluminum plate such as 5052 aluminum plate or 5083 aluminum plate as raw material, which has good corrosion resistance, hardness and anti-rust performance. They are usually used in special places, such as ships, carriages and other humid environments.

5083 aluminum tread plate is a representative product of non-slip aluminum plate. It has a high hardness and high tensile strength. The hardness has obvious advantages in similar products. 5083 aluminium plate also has better corrosion resistance than 5052 or 6061 aluminum.

The common tempers of 5052 aluminum diamond plate are T6 and T651. Under normal circumstances, the internal stress of T6 will be relatively large, and the processing will deform. Therefore, the most suitable state for processing is T651. The T651 state is stretched on the basis of T6 to eliminate internal stress.

The strength of 5052-T651 aluminum plate cannot be compared with that of 2 series and 7 series alloy products. However, due to the presence of magnesium and silicon elements, 5052 aluminum plate has excellent weldability, corrosion resistance and cold workability.

5 bar pattern aluminum tread plate is often used for the boat floor. Since the willow-shaped patterns on the surface of the aluminum plate are arranged in parallel according to five concave-convex patterns and each pattern has an angle of 60-80 degrees with other patterns, this pattern has excellent anti-skid performance.
