Characteristics

With excellent corrosion resistance and weldability, together with high strength, this alloy was designed for welded structures requiring maximum joint strength and efficiency. Can be anodized for increased corrosion resistance, but does not lend itself to decorative applications. Not meant to be a machining alloy, but can be machined fairly well with proper preparations. Because of its relatively high magnesium content, the workability rating would only be fair. Non-heat treatable. 

 

Typical Application

5083 is commonly used in highly stressed welded assemblies, dump truck boxes, storage tanks, and cryogenic vessels.

Typical applications include large marine craft, containers, railroad cars, structurals and elevator cars.
