Why Choose 5086 Aluminium alloy plate

Aluminum 5086 is structural alloy, which offers users strong corrosion resistance and high electrical conductivity. Offering higher strength levels than 5052 or 5083, Aluminum 5086 becomes stronger with stain hardening and cold working, all while remaining a cost-effective choice. It can be welded with conventional methods, though electric arc welding is preferred.
5086-H116 is a superior marine environment, corrosion resistant aluminum alloy. The benefit this alloy brings over standard alloys such as 5052 or 6061 is the corrosion resistance and better welding capabilities. It is not strengthened by heat treatment; instead, it becomes stronger due to strain hardening or cold working of the material. Due to the alloy’s excellent corrosion resistance in seawater, 5086-H116 is extremely popular for marine applications.
5086-H116 is widely used in a variety of marine applications including, commercial and private boat repair, construction and modifications as well as welded superstructures and industrial applications in corrosive environments.
Haomei Aluminum is a large 5086 aluminum plate manufacturer. 5086 aluminum plate is one of Haomei Aluminum's advantageous products. Haomei Aluminum strictly controls the product technology of 5086 aluminum plate. It determines the alloy composition, optimizes the casting process, and homogenizes the heat treatment. And rolling process tests, the product performance is equivalent to foreign materials, to meet user requirements, especially to meet the increased demand for processing of aluminum, marine transportation, automobiles, molds and other complex parts, the application prospect is extremely broad.

The main difference between the two grades of aluminum plates is the difference in chemical composition and mechanical properties.
5083 aluminum plate chemical composition content: Si: ≤ 0.4 Cu: ≤ 0.1 Mg: 4.0–4.9 Zn: 0.25 Mn: 0.40–1.0 Ti: ≤ 0.15 Cr: 0.05–0.25 Fe: 0.4
5086 aluminum plate chemical composition content: Mg: 3.5 ~ 4.5 Zn: ≤ 0.25 Mn: 0.20 ~ 0.7 Ti: ≤ 0.15 Cr: 0.05 ~ 0.25 Fe: 0.000 ~ 0.500
5083 Mechanical properties: Tensile strength σb (MPa): 110-136 Elongation δ10 (%): ≥20 Annealing temperature: 415 °C Yield strength σs (MPa) ≥110
