5083 aluminum plate for ships is a high-performance aluminum alloy material widely used in shipbuilding, with moderate strength, excellent corrosion resistance, good weldability, and formability. This aluminum plate belongs to the Al Mg alloy series.

Performance characteristics

• Corrosion resistance: 5083 aluminum plate performs well in seawater and is not prone to intergranular corrosion, making it suitable for use in marine environments. A dense layer of alumina film will form on its surface, effectively resisting erosion in seawater.

• Welding performance: It has good welding crack resistance, stable post welding performance, and is suitable for shipbuilding welding. Usually, various welding methods such as gas welding, arc welding, contact spot welding, and wire welding are used.

• Strength and weight: 5083 aluminum plate has high specific strength and modulus, which can reduce the weight of the ship and improve navigation efficiency. Its low density can significantly reduce the weight of ships and save energy consumption.

• Environmental characteristics: Aluminum alloy does not burn, has a high recycling rate, and meets environmental requirements.

Application Area 

5083 aluminum plates are widely used in various parts of shipbuilding, such as decks, engine mounts, ship sides, and bottom outer panels. In addition, it is also used to manufacture aircraft fuel tanks, oil pipes, ship fuel system components, ship sheet metal parts, instruments, street lamp brackets, rivets, hardware products, and electrical enclosures.

Specifications and Status

The specifications of 5083 aluminum plates for ships are diverse, with thickness ranging from 1.6mm to 30mm, and width and length also varying. Common states include O, H111, H112, H116, H24, H32, and H321. These states are applicable to different processing requirements and usage scenarios.

Manufacturer and Certification

Henan Mingtai Aluminum Industry is one of the large-scale manufacturers of ship grade aluminum plates. The 5083 marine aluminum plate produced have passed multiple certifications, including CCS certification, ABS certification, BV certification, and LR certification.
