RINA Certificated 5000 Series Cast Aluminum Plate for Boat Building
RINA,Registro Italiano Navale, was founded in Genoa in 1861. It has a history of more than 150 years and is one of the oldest classification societies in the world. It is also one of the founders of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS). As a classification society, RINA designs and supervises the construction of ships according to RINA specifications and provides comprehensive quality and safety certification. All of our marine aluminum sheets are with RINA certification.
5052 aluminum sheet is a wrought alloy that belongs to the 5000 series cast aluminum plate. It is often called aluminum-magnesium alloy. Because magnesium is the main alloying element in the alloy after aluminum. 5052 aluminum alloy has good corrosion resistance. It has high resistance to salt water and salt spray. Therefore, it is often used in the hulls of small boats such as yachts and fishing boats.
5052 aluminum sheet properties
1. The density is about 2.68 g/cm³, which makes it very popular in many applications that require lightweight materials, such as transportation manufacturing, aerospace and other fields.
2. Although the melting point of aluminum alloys is affected by their specific composition, the melting point is approximately between 575°C and 650°C. This range is wide because other elements in the alloy can slightly change the melting point.
3. Aluminum alloys have a high thermal conductivity of about 138 W/m·K, which makes them very useful in applications that require good thermal conductivity, such as heat sinks, heat exchangers, etc.
4. Although the electrical conductivity of aluminum alloys is generally lower than that of pure aluminum, about 30% IACS (International Annealed Copper Standard). This means that it is still a good choice in electrical applications, especially when weight and cost are more advantageous than pure aluminum.
5. The coefficient of expansion is about 23.8 x 10^-6 /°C, which is measured between 20°C and 100°C. Understanding this parameter is very important for engineers who use materials in environments with large temperature changes.
6. The specific heat capacity is about 0.88 J/g·°C, which reflects the ability of a material unit mass to absorb or release heat when the temperature changes.
5086-O aluminum alloy sheet and 5086-H111 aluminum alloy extrusion profile are used on high-speed boats. 5086 aluminum, with a magnesium content between 3.5% and 4.5%, is a high-magnesium and non-heat-treatable alloy. Therefore, the strength of 5086 aluminum is higher than that of 5052 aluminum alloy, but slightly lower than that of 5083 aluminum alloy.
5086 aluminum sheet is a popular marine grade nd is widely used in the manufacture of hulls, decks, etc. Similarly, 5086 aluminum tread plate with surface embossing treatment is also the best material for spiral stairs, pedals, refrigerated truck sidings and floors on large ships. 5086 embossed sheet has excellent processing performance, good electroplating and weldability, and medium strength. Welcome to be our 5086 aluminum plate distributors.
