How to choose the marine grade aluminum sheet?

marine grade aluminum sheet include 5083 aluminum, 5052 aluminum, 5086 aluminum, 5059 aluminum, 6061 aluminum and 6063 aluminum. among them, 5083 aluminum is an aluminum-magnesium alloy with low density, high toughness, high corrosion resistance, and weldability, mainly used for hull construction. It has high strength, good corrosion resistance, excellent weldability, and good ductility, which can well adapt to harsh marine environments. Apart from hulls, it can also be used for light rail, pressure vessels and other sea fields.

6061 aluminum has high bending strength and ductility, mainly used for cantilever and bridge decks.

7075 aluminum has high strength and wear resistance, mainly used for ship anchor chains.

Different types of aluminum plates have different characteristics and uses. When using them, it is necessary to strictly follow the relevant regulations.

5083 aluminum plate is a representative product of 5 series aluminium-magnesium alloy, with excellent rust resistance, weldability, and cold workability.

5083 aluminum plate can adapt to the ocean’s highly corrosive environment for a long time, it is a widely used marine aluminum plate. Marine 5083 aluminum plate state is usually H116/H321/H112 state, to the thick plate mostly, can be used for yachts, grain ships, fishing boats, workboats, sand barges and other ships, decks, engine pedestals, side, the bottom of the ship and other parts of the outer plate. For marine aluminum plate, classification society certification is very important. It is an affirmation of 5083 aluminum plate, which can be used to produce ships, marine facilities and equipment only after obtaining the corresponding certificate issued by the classification society.

5052 Marine Aluminum Plate – 5052 Aluminum Plate is AL-Mg system alloy that is 5 series rust-proof aluminum, good weldability, high corrosion resistance, this alloy has high strength, especially with fatigue strength: high plasticity, can not be heat-treated to strengthen the plasticity is still good in semi-cold-worked hardening, cold-worked hardening of the plasticity is still good, cold-worked hardening of the plasticity of the low, poor machinability performance, polishable.

5086 is also a commonly used marine aluminum plate, with good weldability, and high corrosion resistance, 5086 aluminum plate is typically used: for the need to have, good weldability and medium strength occasions, such as ships, automobiles and aircraft plate weldable parts; need to be strictly fireproof pressure vessels, refrigeration units, TV towers, equipment, equipment, transportation equipment, missile parts, armor, and so on.
Delin Aluminum, offers a wide range of aluminum alloy ship plates, which have been certified by CCS China Classification Society, ABS American Bureau of Shipping, BV French Classification Society, LR British Register of Shipping, and many other certificates.
