Marine Grade Aluminum Diamond Plate and Marine Pipes

 The aluminum tread plates are mostly made of 1060, 3003, 5052 and 6061. In comparison, the 1 and 3 series aluminum checker plates have lower hardness and slightly poorer wear resistance, and are mostly used in ordinary environments and applications where the anti-rust requirements are not strict.

The cabins of the shipbuilding industry all choose marine grade aluminum diamond plates, which have good anti-skid effect, strong anti-rust ability and light weight. 6061 patterned plate is a patterned aluminum plate with high hardness. The hardness is around 95HB in the T6 state. The bending performance is not good, but the hardness and strength are good.

5083 marine grade aluminum diamond plate has good corrosion resistance and anti-rust performance, and can adapt well to high-strength and high-corrosion resistance occasions. It has good application effects in ships, vehicles, and work platforms.

The 5086 marine aluminum tread plate after surface embossing is also the best material for spiral stairs, pedals, refrigerated truck sidings and floors on large ships. 5086 aluminum sheet has excellent corrosion resistance. At the same time, because of the various patterns embossed on the surface, such as 2 bars, 3 bars, 5 bars,etc., it plays a more critical anti-slip property.

6061 and 6082 are two alloys to make marine aluminum extrusions. They good formability, weldability, machinability, and medium strength,which can still maintain good operability after annealing. They are mainly used in mechanical structures, including bars, plates, pipes and profiles.

6061 marine aluminum pipe is an all-round player among the 6 series aluminum alloys. It has excellent corrosion resistance, weldability and machinability, as well as good tensile strength and fatigue strength.

6082 aluminum alloy has high mechanical strength and excellent corrosion resistance, and is particularly suitable for the manufacture of structural parts in the fields of shipbuilding, bridge engineering, and transportation vehicles. Its light weight and high strength make it an ideal choice to replace traditional steel materials.

Aluminum plate for ship deck

 

The Function of Ship Deck

The ship deck is composed of aluminum plates and frameworks, playing an important role in ensuring the strength and unsinkability of the hull, and providing an area for arranging various cabins and mechanical equipment. The deck divides the ship into upper and lower parts. The part above the main deck is collectively called the superstructure; the part below the main deck is called the main hull.

The deck parts of ships are prone to water collection and condensation, subject to wind and rain erosion, sun exposure and directly in contact with the atmosphere. Therefore, the ship deck is first to required to have excellent corrosion resistance and water resistance.

In addition, due to personnel activities and mechanical operations, the deck is often subject to trampling friction and rolling wear, and it also needs frequent cleaning because of the contamination of various oily, acid and alkaline media. Therefore, the ship deck material should have good slip resistance, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Haomei marine grade aluminum plate meets those requirements.

Main Types of Aluminum Deck Plates

The main alloys of aluminum deck plates are 5052, 5083, 5086 and 6061, especially aluminum tread plate.

• 5052 aluminum check plate: It is of novel structure, good anti-skid effect, light weight and excellent durability. The mass per square meter is about 7kg, its tensile strength is 200N per square millimeter, and the relative elongation is higher than 10%, which can withstand high bending without breaking.

• 5083 aluminum deck plate: Its patterns have one bar, two bar, three bar, five bar,etc. Haomei 5083 aluminum plate is of flat shape and stable performance, which has been successfully used on yachts, cruise ships and other hulls. The common tempers are 5083-H116, H112 and H321.

• 5086 aluminum diamond plate: It features low density, high tensile strength, high elongation, and high corrosion resistance. It has medium strength and good weldability. So it is widely used as the marine grade aluminium plate.

• 6061 aluminum tread plate: 6161 aluminum plate has excellent corrosion resistance, weather resistance, slip resistance, easy processing property, which is an indispensable material for making ship decks. In particular, it has no stress corrosion cracking tendency.
