Aluminium 5086 Bar, Sheet, Plate

Alloy 5086 aluminum plates have even higher strength than 5052 or 5083 and its mechanical properties vary significantly with hardening and temperature. It is not strengthened by heat treatment; instead, it becomes stronger due to strain hardening or cold working of the material. This alloy can be readily welded, retaining most of its mechanical strength. The good results with welding and good corrosion properties in seawater make Alloy 5086 extremely popular in marine applications. Alloy 5086 has been used in vehicle armor plate due to its high strength factor.

Aluminium / Aluminum alloys have strong corrosion resistance characteristics and high electrical conductivity. These alloys are sensitive to high temperatures ranging between 200 and 250°C (392 and 482°F) and tend to lose their strength. They are good low-temperature alloys and gain strength when exposed to subzero temperatures.

Advantages

  • Greater corrosion resistance
  • Higher tensile strength
  • Brilliant polish
  • Excellent machine strength
  • High creep resistance
  • High temperature strenght
  • Excellent mechanical properties
