The application of Aluminium in construction and architecture slowed in the 1940s, as the metal was predominantly used for producing planes. It even earned a second name, "winged metal." But as early as the middle of the twentieth century, Aluminium sheet became more and more popular in the construction of high-rise buildings and bridges. Window frames, panels, domed roofs and other wide-span constructions and or ...

5083 marine Aluminum Alloy sheet in good corrosion resistance, the corrosion rate in seawater is very slow, the uniform corrosion rate is generally 0.025-0.05mm/ years, can resist the corrosion of seawater and marine atmosphere on the ship, reduce oil and maintenance cost, long service life. 5083 marine Aluminum Alloy plate with high strength and low fracture toughness, it is suitable for hull structure material, ...
In the 5000 series aluminum embossed sheet, 5052 stucco embossed aluminum sheet is the most widely used grade. Different from pure aluminum alloy series, 5000 series have more metal elements which add more application fields, 5052 aluminum alloy has Zn of 0.1%, Fe of 0.4%, Cu of 0.1%, Mg of 2.2-2.8%, Si of 0.25% and Mn of 0.1%. As the content of Mg is much more than other elements, so 5052 aluminum has great a ...
Why do we use 5052 aluminum sheet for automobile fuel tank materials? Let’s take a look today. With the introduction of the lightweight concept of automobiles, traditional iron fuel tanks are gradually being replaced by aluminum fuel tanks, especially heavy vehicles such as trucks. The fuel tank made of aluminum alloy can reduce the weight of the vehicle by half, and is not easy to rust. It has a long service li ...
5000 series aluminum sheet such as 5052-H32， H34, and 5083 h111aluminum plates has higher fatigue strength, excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine applications, and has workability. 5052 aluminum plate is commonly used to make fuel tanks. Excellent corrosion resistance makes 5 series alloys widely used in maritime applications such as ships, as well as automobiles, aircraft welded parts ...
