marine grade aluminum plate for sale

2020-09-25

Marine aluminum plate is the emerging market for R & D applications of aluminum products. Shipboard production capacity has also become an important indicator of the comprehensive strength of various aluminum processing enterprises. With the upgrading of domestic aluminum production process, leading enterprises in Henan Province - Mingtaialuminum plate production scale gradually expanded, increasingly rich types of alloys, product performance has reached the international advanced level.

At present, Mingtai 5083 aluminum plate, 5086 aluminum plate, 5754 aluminum plate and other products, has entered the world shipbuilding market, mainly used in the ship's deck, the engine platform, the ship side, the bottom of the ship and other components.

Marine aluminum alloy is one of the emerging areas of aluminum products, but also the transformation and upgrading of many domestic aluminum processing enterprises focus on the direction. Marine aluminum alloy because it is used for marine ships and other fields, so than other ordinary aluminum products, there are more stringent process requirements and performance standards.

From the development of marine aluminum, at present, many domestic aluminum manufacturers have begun to focus on research and development 5 series, 6 series of marine aluminum, increase scientific research, expand production scale, into the marine aluminum and other high-end manufacturing market. To the national aluminum processing enterprises - MingtaiAluminum, for example, its 5083,5086,5454 and other aluminum by 2015 China Classification Society certification, in October and passed the Norwegian Classification Society certification, made foreign trade aluminum "world License ", which will be the company's marine aluminum market to open up a broader space for development, but also for the domestic shipboard enterprises to upgrade and play a positive role model.

Marine Grade Aluminum Alloys

A Guid to Marine Grade Aluminum

Here's a handy comparison chart of Marine Grade Aluminum Alloys.

We often get asked which alloy to use, and the answer is "it depends".

There are three alloys that we generally recommend for hull plating and frames: 5086, 5083, 5052

And two alloys we recommend for extrusions such as flat bar, tee bar, and tubing: 6061-T6, 6063-T52

Aluminum Grade-Temper	General	Yield strength (psi)	Ultimate Tensile Strength (psi)	Workability	Weldability
5052-H32	Marine grade. Most suited for forming operations, very good corrosion resistance. Suitable for fresh water and trailered boats.	28,000	33,000 12% elong.	Fair	Good
5083-H321 (Recommend H116)	Marine grade. The highest strength non-heat-treatable aluminum alloy in commercial use. It retains excellent tensile strength in the weld zone. Excellent corrosion resistance. Suitable for salt water or fresh	33,000	46,000 16% elong.	Good	Excellent
5086-H32	Marine grade. Medium to high strength non-heat-treatable alloy. More formable than 5083. Excellent corrosion resistance. Most often used to build boat hulls (in addition to 5052 or 6061) due to stress corrosion cracking resistance. Best alloy for salt water.	30,000	42,000 12% elong.	Excellent	Good
6061-T6	Marine grade, often used as stiffeners to build boat hulls and other components. The most often used aluminum alloy for its strength, heat treatability, workability and weldability.	40,000	45,000 17% elong.	Good	Good
6063-T52	Softer and lower strength than 6061, good for forming, high surface finish, excellent for anodizing. Good for railings, gunnels etc. where forming is required	21,000	27,000	Good	Good
6262-T6511	Used when significant machining is required, it contains lead and bismuth to partially lubricate the cutting tool. Good strength and corrosion resistance. High surface finish possible.	27,600	31,900	Excellent	Good
