Aluminium 5086 Circles

Aluminium alloy 5086 circles are round metal discs made using the aluminium-magnesium alloy. This alloy mainly comprises aluminium, magnesium, manganese, and chromium. The presence of magnesium in the composition makes it highly resistant to corrosion and gives it good formability properties at both low and high temperatures. Due to its durability, its primary uses include construction components for use in marine environments, such as fishing boats and offshore platforms, and outdoor products like chimney caps or mailboxes.

Aluminium Alloy 5086 Circles are high-grade alloy circles used primarily in marine applications due to their superior saltwater corrosion resistance, weldability, and formability. It’s also ideal for cryogenic applications due to its low melting temperature and stress-corrosion cracking resistance. In addition, it is often used for transportation equipment such as tank cattle trailers, railway coaches, and intermodal containers. Other industrial uses include piping systems in gas and oil production plants and fuel tanks on ships.
