The Properties of 5xxx Marine Aluminum Sheet
The marine aluminium sheets can be divided into deformed aluminum alloys and cast aluminum alloys according to different manufacturing processes. Because marine aluminum alloys have special requirements for strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability, Al-Mg, Al-Mg-Si and Al-Zn-Mg aluminium alloys are mostly used.
Of them, 5xxx aluminum alloy is the most widely used on ships, so what are the properties of 5xxx aluminum? It mainly include 5083, 5086, and 5456. 5083 aluminum plate can be regarded as the typical 5xxx aluminum alloy. Its tempers are O, H111, H112, H116, H321, etc.
5083 aluminum has medium strength, corrosion resistance and good formability , High fatigue resistance, which is generally used as the main structure of the hull. Others, such as 5052, 5086, 5454, 5456, etc., are also mostly used in hull structures or pressure vessels, pipelines, hulls and decks.
Generally speaking, the thickness of the aluminum plates used is determined by the hull structure, ship specifications and parts used. In terms of hull lightweight, thin aluminum plates are generally used as much as possible, but the depth of corrosion of the plates during use should also be considered. 5 bar aluminum tread plate is often used for the ship deck due to its excellent anti-slip performance.
Haomei 5083, 5086 and 5454 marine grade aluminum has got the certification of CCS and DNV. With rich international trade experience, we an ensure consistent quality from the factory to the destination. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
