Marine GradeAluminum-steel clad plate
what is Aluminum-steel clad plate?
Aluminum steel clad plate is a kind of clad material with high strength and good toughness. Its appearance greatly improves the bearing capacity and seismic performance of buildings. Aluminum has low density, high plasticity, corrosion resistance, easy processing, wear resistance, and electrical conductivity, while steel has high strength, good plasticity and toughness, and good economy, but it is not corrosion resistant. Aluminum steel clad plates are the combination of the two materials. A material that combines advantages. This process, often involving roll bonding, results in a robust material suitable for various applications, including heat exchangers, tanks, shipbuilding and high-speed train components
Aluminum steel clad plates are a combination of the two materials—a material that combines advantages.
Marine aluminum-steel clad plates are used to facilitate joining aluminum and steel structures in marine applications like shipbuilding and yacht building. These plates are typically fabricated by explosive bonding or roll bonding, creating a metallurgical bond between the two metals. They serve as a transition joint, allowing for welding of dissimilar metals and avoiding corrosion issues associated with mechanical fasteners.
aluminum clad steel plate is commonly used for shipbuilding. They are used as transition materials between hulls to save costs and reduce the weight of hulls.
