Marine Grade 5086 Aluminum Properties
Anti-rust aluminum sheet refers to an aluminum plate that can show good corrosion resistance in the atmosphere, water, oil and other media. Anti-rust aluminum plate is generally used in oceans and ships. Among them, 5086 aluminum sheet is an important grade. It belongs to Al-Mg alloy and the magnesium content generally does not exceed 7%. What are the 5086 aluminum properties?
Its strength is much higher than 5052 or 5083 and its mechanical properties may significantly vary with hardening and temperature. It has better corrosion resistance than 5052 and 5083, which is often used to make the ships in seawater. Its welding performance is also very good, retaining most of its mechanical strength.
From 1966 to 1971, the United States built 14 "Asheville" class high-speed gunboats. The main deck and bottom plate were made of 5086-H32 aluminum alloy with a thickness of 12.7mm, and the profiles were made of 5086-H112 aluminum alloy. In addition, 5052 alloy aluminum plate and 5454 aluminum alloy were also used for deck.
The Norwegian Shipbuilding Association stipulates the use of 5454 aluminum alloy, and the tensile strength of its sheet is the same as that of 5086 aluminum alloy. In the United States, 5456 aluminum alloy is mainly used, but 5086-O aluminum alloy sheet and 5086-H111 aluminum alloy extrusion profile are recently used on high-speed boats.
5086 aluminum sheet is widely used in the manufacture of hulls and decks. Similarly, the 5086 aluminum tread plate after surface embossing treatment is also the best material for the ladders, treads, refrigerated truck walls and floors on large ships. At present, the thickness of the commonly used 5086 aluminum checker plate ranges from 2.0-8mm, and the common widths are 1220 and 1500mm.
As one of the big 5086 aluminum plate supplier, Haomei Aluminum also has other marine grade aluminum alloys like 5052, 5083, 5456, 5059,etc. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
