What Is Marine Grade Aluminum Sheet Plate?

5 Series aluminum sheets, also called marine grade or AL-Mg alloy aluminum sheets,which is the most widely used rust-proof aluminum. This alloy has high strength, especially fatigue strength, high plasticity, and corrosion resistance, good weldability, poor machinability, and can be polished. Main alloy are 5052 and 5083.

Let us look at these marine grade aluminum sheets in more detail.

Part1. What Are The Difference of Marine Grade Aluminum Sheets?

1.5052 alloy aluminum sheets plates exhibit excellent formability, corrosion resistance, weldability, and moderate static strength.

2.5083 alloy aluminum sheets plates are employed in situations that demand high corrosion resistance, good weldability, and moderate strength.

According to tensile strength and yield strength, 5083 aluminum plates are significantly stronger than 5052 aluminum plates.

Their chemical compositions are difference:

5052: Si 0-0.25  Fe 0-0.4  Cu 0-0.1  Mn 0-0.1  Mg 2.2-2.8  Cr 0.15-0.35  Zn 0-0.1

5083: Si 0-0.4  Fe 0-0.4  Cu 0-0.1  Mn 0.4-1.0  Mg 4.0-4.9  Cr 0.05-0.25  Zn 0-0.25

Part2.What Are The Difference of Tempers?

5052 O,H12,H22,H24,H32,H111

5083 O, H22,H111, H112,H116,H321

Part3.What Are The Applications of Marine Grade Aluminum Sheets Plates?

5052-They are used in the manufacture of aircraft fuel tanks,sheet metal parts for transportation vehicles, ships, instruments, streetlight brackets, rivets, and hardware products, among other applications.

5083-These include welded components for ships,Yachts, boats, trucks and aircraft panels, pressure vessels with strict fire resistance requirements, refrigeration equipment, TV towers, transportation equipment, missile components, and more.

Part4.What Are The Features of Marine Grade Aluminum Sheets Plates?

1.Good formability, good weldability, beautiful

2.High plasticity, good electrical and thermal conductivity     

4. Easy processing and corrosion resistance

5. No low-temperature brittleness    

6. Strong reflectivity and Non-magnetic,no sparks when impacted  

Part5.What Are The Difference of Alloy Designations?

5052: 5052,AlMg2.5, 3.3523, A95052, A-G2,5C, EN AW-5052

5083: AlMg4.5Mn0.7, 3.3547,BS N8, A95083,A-G4,5Mn, EN AW-5083

Part6. What Are The Sizes That Customers Often buy?

Stand size: 1250x2500mm, 1500x3000mm;2000x4000mm,2000x6000mm,2000x8000mm.
