5052 Marine Grade Aluminium for Shipbuilding

 Aluminum alloy has low density, non-magnetic and good low temperature performance. Using it as the structural material of the ship can reduce the weight of the ship, increase the load capacity, and improve the stability and speed. Therefore, for all kinds of small and medium-sized ships, especially hydrofoils, hovercraft, and small military ships, it is a development direction to choose it as the shell material.

5052 marine grade aluminum is a typical 5xxx aluminum alloy and the Mg content is 2.2%-2.8%. It has the characteristics of light weight, medium strength, good corrosion resistance and weldability, and easy processing and forming, etc. Its tensile strength can reach 215-265Mpa.

5052 aluminum plate is mainly used in the hull of yachts and ship parts like decks, portholes, gangways, chimney,etc. Because its magnesium content is higher than other alloys, the anti-rust function is very good, which is also an important reason why 5052 marine aluminum plate is applied to the hull.

Magnesium has high strength, anti-rust function and corrosion resistance, which can well cope with the corrosion of seawater and fresh water. The material of freshwater lake yachts is generally made of 5052 aluminum plate, and the state is H32/O, which because it is in contact with fresh water and its corrosion is not as strong as that of sea water.

The aluminum consumption of the "Liaoning" aircraft carrier is estimated to be about 650t, and the alloys are mostly 5052 and 6063. As early as 1933, the United States used 5052 alloy to manufacture bridges, deck cabins, aircraft launch pads, elevators, masts, etc. of aircraft carriers, destroyers, cruisers, etc.

Haomei Aluminum 5052 has been certified by China Classification Society (CCS), Det Norske Veritas (DNV), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Bureau Veritas (BV), British company (LR), which was loved by the Philippines, Myanmar, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia and other Southeast Asian and North American shipbuilding markets.
