What Are Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks?
Aluminum 5086 is an advanced high-strength alloy known for its outstanding corrosion resistance in marine applications, making this alloy suitable for structural components on ships, tanks and other marine structures. Plates and blocks made with this alloy offer superior weldability and formability, ideal features when welding structures together, making this alloy popularly used by industries requiring lightweight yet sturdy materials such as ship building.
Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks are widely known for their exceptional corrosion resistance, making them suitable for marine and other harsh environments. Highly resistant to both saltwater corrosion as well as chemical corrosion, these plates and blocks offer lasting performance even under challenging circumstances.
Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks have exceptional machinability properties which enable quick shaping, drilling and milling processes without compromise to structural integrity, making these parts highly suitable for various manufacturing and construction applications.
Aluminium 5086 boasts outstanding weldability, making welding fast and seamless without compromising strength or aesthetics, an ability that greatly facilitates its use when creating complex assemblies or components.
Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks find widespread application in marine vessels, offshore structures and transportation equipment requiring corrosion resistance as well as lightweight properties, along with chemical processing equipment or architectural components due to its corrosion-resistance. Furthermore, their lightweight properties also make them desirable components.
Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks find extensive use in marine applications as hulls, decks and bulkheads due to their corrosion-resistance and lightweight nature. Furthermore, these plates and blocks find use as aerospace components such as aircraft wings or fuselage panels due to their superior strength-to-weight ratios.
Aluminium 5086 Plates and Blocks play an essential part in automotive frame fabrication, contributing to fuel efficiency while simultaneously reducing weight. Furthermore, these pieces are used extensively in corrosion resistant storage tanks, pipes, and heat exchangers construction applications in industries like mining.

Melting and Casting
Steel and alloying metals are loaded into an electric arc furnace. Once in the furnace, the metal is heated to a specific temperature above its melting point, usually in excess of 2800°F.
Forming
Most cast steel is formed by hot rolling—the slab, bloom, or billet is heated and passed through large rollers, stretching out the steel into a longer, thinner form.
Heat Treatment
Heat treatment strengthens rolled steel by recrystallizing the deformed microstructure. Most steel is heat treated by annealing.
Cutting or Machining
Steel is cut to a specified shape and size. The steel can be sheared with circular knives, sawed with high-speed blades, or blanked with punches.
Finishing
Steels can be made with a wide variety of surface finishes. The chosen surface finish is not purely aesthetic. The type of finish is determined by the intended application.
