ALUMINIUM ALLOYS
AA5083 | EN 3.3547
Description
Aluminum Alloy AA5083 is well known for its exceptional performance in the most extreme environments. The alloy displays high resistance to both seawater and industrial chemical environments. The product offers the highest strength of all the non-heat-treatable alloys but should not be used in temperatures above 65°C. With good overall mechanical properties, 5083 aluminium alloy benefits from good weldability and retains its strength after this process. The material combines excellent ductility with good formability and performs well in low-temperature service.
Applications of AA5083
- Pressurised Vessels
- Vehicle Bodies
- Shipbuilding
- Rail Cars
- Tipper Trucks Bodies
- Mine Skips
- Cages
