5083 aluminium alloy is an aluminium–magnesium alloy with magnesium and traces of manganese and chromium. It is highly resistant to attack by seawater and industrial chemicals. Alloy 5083 retains exceptional strength after welding. It has the highest strength of the non-heat treatable alloys with an Ultimate Tensile Strength of 317 MPa or 46000 psi and a Tensile Yield Strength of 228 MPa or 33000 psi. It is not recommended for use in temperatures in excess of 6
With a higher magnesium content (around 4.9%), it offers enhanced protection against saltwater corrosion, making it the preferred choice for applications
Both 5083 and 5086 are marine-grade aluminium alloys that contain magnesium, manganese, and chromium. However, 5083 has a higher magnesium
