EN-AW 5086 Aluminum Rod Bar

5086 Aluminum Rod is a non-heat-treatable magnesium alloy, typically strengthened through strain hardening or cold working processes. It is often referred to as the "sister alloy" of 5083 aluminum, but it has a higher strength than 5083. Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and outstanding weldability, it is widely used in marine, shipbuilding, containers, armored vehicles, and pressure vessels.

As a professional aluminum supplier, Mastar can customize aluminum rods according to EN, ASTM, and AMS standards based on customer needs. All outgoing materials undergo strict inspection, and product quality inspection reports are provided as proof of quality.

Mastar supplies a wide range of aluminum rods in various processes, including extruded rods, cold-finished rods, and cast billets. Specific dimensions and size ranges are as follows:

Popular 5086 aluminum rod products

5086 O aluminum rod bar

The 5086 O aluminum rod is fully annealed, offering excellent ductility and formability, making it easy to process further. Though it has lower strength, it is the ideal choice in applications where good formability is required, such as hulls or complex structural components. It is particularly suitable for marine and corrosive environments.

5086 H111 aluminum rod barr

The 5086 H111 aluminum rod has undergone slight work hardening, providing slightly higher strength than the O temper while maintaining good formability. It is widely used in marine, structural components, and other areas that require moderate strength and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for medium-load marine applications.

5086 H112 aluminum rod bar

The 5086 H112 aluminum rod is naturally hardened after processing, offering higher strength than both O temper and H111 temper, with medium strength and good corrosion resistance. It is commonly used in marine and structural applications requiring moderate strength and dimensional stability, especially in shipbuilding, storage tanks, and pressure vessels.

5086 F aluminum cast billets bar

Generally, 5086 F aluminum rod has not undergone specific work hardening or heat treatment, resulting in relatively unstable mechanical properties. However, it is ideal as an extrusion billet, providing flexibility for subsequent processing and forming operations.

5086 aluminum round bar

Diameter: 5-420mm

The round-section 5086 aluminum rod is the most commonly used shape. It can be extruded into various tubes or custom parts. It is typically used in ship shafts, drilling platform transmission systems, hydraulic systems, starter systems, and bolts and nuts connecting ship equipment.

How is the welding performance of 5086 aluminum alloy?

The welding performance of 5086 aluminum is excellent, especially with arc welding (MIG or TIG). During the welding process, the mechanical properties slightly decrease but still maintain high levels. For example, after welding H116 material, the yield strength drops from 210 MPa to 120 MPa, and the ultimate tensile strength decreases from 290 MPa to 260 MPa, showing only a 10% strength loss, and performance remains outstanding. Friction stir welding can also be applied but is not as common as arc welding.

5083 aluminum rod bar vs 5086 aluminum rod bar

• Strength: The 5083 aluminum rod has a higher strength compared to the 5086, especially after cold working, making it suitable for structural components with higher strength requirements.
• Corrosion Resistance: Both alloys exhibit excellent seawater corrosion resistance, but 5086 slightly surpasses 5083 in this regard, making it ideal for environments with prolonged seawater exposure.
• Machinability: 5086 aluminum offers better machinability, making it more suitable for applications requiring significant forming. On the other hand, 5083, due to its higher strength, maybe a bit more challenging to process.
