Marine Grade Aluminium Plate Thickness

The marine grade aluminum plate are mainly from 5xxx aluminum alloy. The 5083, 5086 and 5052 aluminum sheet can be used for the side and bottom of the ships. The excellent corrosion resistance of 5 series alloy can better resist the erosion of sea water and extend the life of the ship.

The top and side panes of the ships can use 3004,3003 and 5052 aluminum plate. 3003 aluminum plate has a good anti-rust effect, which can bear the damage brought by long-term wind and rain.

The wheelhouse can be made of 5083 aluminum plate and 5052 aluminum plate. The aluminum plate is non-magnetic, therefore the compass will not be affected, which can ensure the correct direction of the ship while sailing.

Generally speaking, the aluminium plate thickness for ships is determined by the hull structure, ship specifications and use parts. Considering the light weight of the hull, the thin plates are generally used as much as possible, but the depth of corrosion of the plates during use should also be considered.

The commonly used ones are the thin plates above 1.6mm and the thick plates such as 30mm aluminum plate. Some special specifications are also used in accordance with the shipyard contract.Some special specifications are also used in accordance with the shipyard contract.

Haomei 5083 aluminum plate has passed the certification of CCS China Classification Society and DNV Det Norske Veritas, and has been successfully used on yachts, cruise ships and other hulls. The common tempers of the 5083 aluminum sheet are H116, H321 and H112.
