In the context of the global shipping industry's pursuit of green and low-carbon development, lightweight ships have become an irreversible trend. With its excellent performance, 5456 marine aluminum plate is becoming a key material to promote the development of lightweight ships, leading the shipbuilding industry to a new journey of more environmentally friendly and efficient.

5456 aluminum plate belongs to the 5 series aluminum-magnesium anti-rust aluminum alloy, the main components of which include aluminum (Al), magnesium (Mg) and a small amount of manganese (Mn), iron (Fe) and silicon (Si). It has excellent corrosion resistance, high strength and good weldability, and is widely used in shipbuilding. ‌ Especially in high-end shipbuilding, 5456 aluminum plate has become an indispensable key material.

Core features of 5456 marine grade aluminum plate

1. Reduce hull weight: The density of aluminum alloy is much lower than that of steel. The use of 5456 aluminum plate can significantly reduce the weight of the hull, thereby improving the ship's load capacity, speed and fuel efficiency.

2. Improve ship performance: Lightweight hull can reduce the inertia of the ship, improve its maneuverability and stability, and make it perform better in wind and waves.

3. Extend ship life: 5456 aluminum plate has good corrosion resistance, can resist seawater erosion, and extend the service life of the ship.

4. Reduce maintenance costs: Aluminum alloy is not easy to rust, which reduces the maintenance and maintenance costs of ships.

5. Good formability: Suitable for different manufacturing processes such as cold processing and heat treatment.

6. Good weldability: TIG, MIG and other welding methods can be used, and high mechanical properties can still be maintained after welding.
