What is Aluminium alloy grade 5083?

5083 aluminum alloy is known for its exceptional performance in the most extreme environments. The alloy exhibits high resistance to both seawater and industrial chemical environments. This product offers the highest strength of all non-heat treatable alloys but should not be used above 65°C.

What are the characteristics of 5083 aluminum alloy?

1. Corrosion resistance

It is susceptible to stress corrosion cracking, which limits its application temperature to below 65°C and limits the amount of cold work to ¼ Hard.

2. Heat treatment

The hardness of 5083 aluminum alloy cannot be enhanced by heat treatment. It can be significantly hardened by cold working (cold rolling) and produces various "H" tempers - most commonly H32 (¼ hard) or similar strength marine tempers H116 and H321 - as well as soft annealed O tempers.

3. Welding

Almost all standard electric welding of 5083 aluminum alloy has excellent weldability, GMAW and GTAW are preferred and widely used to produce structural welds.

What can 5083 aluminum alloy be used for?

– Shipbuilding

– TV towers

– Drilling rigs

– Transportation equipment: metro and vehicle bodies

– Mine skips and cages

– Unfired welded pressure vessels

– Aluminum armor, aircraft welding parts
