5A06 Aluminum Bar
5A06 Aluminum Bar is a non-heat-treatable, magnesium-containing (Al-Mg) aluminum alloyfrom the 5000 series—renowned globally as a premium “marine-grade” aluminumfor its exceptional corrosion resistance, excellent weldability, and balanced mechanical properties. With a magnesium content of 0.5–0.8% (and trace elements like Mn ≤ 0.5%, Cr ≤ 0.1%), 5A06 leverages solid-solution strengthening to deliver moderate strength (140–210 MPa tensile)while retaining outstanding ductility and formability—making it indispensable for applications exposed to humid, marine, or industrial environments.
Advantage |
Explanation |
| Excellent Corrosion Resistance | Due to the high magnesium content in 5A06 aluminum alloy, it exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments and other corrosive media. The oxide film it forms effectively blocks the intrusion of corrosive substances, thereby extending the service life of components. This makes 5A06 aluminum alloy particularly suitable for marine aerospace and harsh environmental applications. |
| Good Weldability | 5A06 aluminum alloy has good welding performance and can be welded using various methods, including TIG welding and spot welding. After welding, the strength and toughness of the alloy do not significantly decrease, and the quality of the welded joints is relatively high. This feature makes it very practical in the manufacturing process of aerospace structural components, ensuring structural integrity and safety. |
| Machinability | 5A06 aluminum alloy is easy to machine and is suitable for various machining processes, such as milling and turning. Additionally, it performs well in cold working and can undergo various forming operations, such as stretching and bending, without significant brittleness. This provides a high degree of flexibility in the manufacturing process, meeting the needs for complex component machining. |
Our 5A06 aluminum rod bar meet or exceed international standards, including ASTM B221, EN 573-3 / EN 754-2, CCS/DNV/GL, AMS 4154, AMS 4027, AMS 4115. Our quality management system ensures compliance with these standards and provides reliable, certified materials for your critical applications.
