Product Description
5083 aluminum strip is a non-heat treatable alloy known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments, and high strength. It belongs to the 5xxx series of aluminum alloys, which are characterized by their magnesium content. The alloy is primarily composed of aluminum, magnesium, and a small amount of manganese, offering a high-strength, weldable material with outstanding corrosion resistance.

5083 aluminum strip is used in various applications due to its properties:
Marine Industry: Boat hulls and structures, shipbuilding.
Automotive and Transportation: Fuel tanks, trailers, and body panels.
Aerospace Industry: Structural parts, wings, and fuselages.
Defense Applications: Armored vehicles and military vessels.
Cryogenic Applications: LNG storage tanks and pipelines.
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Offers relatively low-density but high-performance products for various demanding applications.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Manufactured for use in the sea and other outside environments where contact with water or any chemical substance is frequently made.
Superior Weldability: Maintains its mechanical properties after welding, so the structural design of that area is not distorted.
Good Formability: Ideal for carving intricate patterns and forms for products with potentially low-stress concentrated areas.
5083 aluminum strip is typically packaged in waterproof Kraft paper, fastened by steel straps on wood pallets, suitable for export ocean forwarding. It should be stored in a dry area, away from moisture, water, snow, animal oils, and dye wastes. Avoid storing with acid or basic chemical goods to prevent corrosion
