Understanding 5083 Aluminum Discs

Composition and Basic Characteristics

5083 Aluminum Discs are part of the Al-Mg alloy series, known for their exceptional performance in various industries. With a magnesium content of over 4.0%, these discs offer superior resistance to deformation and excellent weldability. The addition of copper enhances their electrical conductivity to 29%.

Why Choose 5083 Aluminum Discs?

• Corrosion Resistance: Exceptional in saltwater environments, making them ideal for marine applications.
• Strength: High strength-to-weight ratio, suitable for structural applications.
• Weldability: Retains strength after welding, a critical factor in fabrication processes.
• Non-Heat Treatable: Hardening is achieved through cold working, not heat treatment.
