In the field of transportation, 5083 aluminum sheet is widely used for automobile fuel tanks, aircraft fuel tanks,automotive and aircraft board welding parts,etc. Since the cars, ships and aircraft are the important modern vehicles, the demand for 5083 aluminum plate will also increase.
The main features of 5083 alloy are low density, high tensile strength and high elongation. Under the same area, the weight of aluminum-magnesium alloy is lower than other alloy series. 5083 Aluminum sheet with different tempers is the main material used in automobile manufacturing (car doors, fuel tanks, seals), shipbuilding and canning industries.
In addition, 5083 has stable performance and excellent corrosion resistance in seawater and bad weathers. At present, most shipbuilding companies directly purchase from 5083 aluminum sheet manufacturers, and after a later welding and processing, the China 5083 aluminum sheet becomes structural parts of the hull.
Generally, the 5083 aluminum plate price includes two parts: the aluminum ingot price and the processing cost. Due to the complicated processing technology, high technology and equipment requirements that are required to achieve excellent performance, the 5083 aluminum plate price is usually relatively high.
