5083 Aluminium Alloy

5083 Aluminium alloy is generally supplied as a flat rolled product in plate or sheet form. Also it is well known for its performance in the most extreme environments. This metal will offers the highest strength of all the non-heat-treatable alloys thanks to the bonding of magnesium and chromium inside. As a result of this, this alloy is not ideal for applications above 65 degrees. Both seawater and industrial chemical conditions are resistant to the alloy.

5083 Aluminium Tubing

Due to its exceptional strength and corrosion resistant qualities, 5083 aluminium tubing is a leading choice for industrial and marine applications. As a preeminent supplier of 5083 aluminium tube, we focus on offering our clients top-notch goods and services. We’ll examine more closely at why 5083 aluminium tubing is the best option for maritime and industrial applications in this blog post.

Welding & Working with 5083

The 5083 alloy benefits from good weldability and retains strength after this process. The final product combines excellent ductility with good formability while having:

  • Deficient solderability
  • Deficient brazability
  • Deficient machinability
  • Average quality gas weldability
  • Average cold workability
  • Excellent arc weldability
  • Excellent resistance weldability
