the standard
in the alloy 5083

Medium-strength rolled plate

Alloy: EN AW 5083 (AlMg4,5Mn0,7 – 3.3547)

Type of alloy: non heat treatable

Temper: H111

Surface: mill-finished or brush-finished

  • good anodising capability
  • very good corrosion resistance
  • very good weldability
  • good machinability

Medium-strength rolled plate EN AW 5083 (AlMg4.5Mn0.7) is used almost universally in almost all areas of the capital goods industry because of its many beneficial properties. Under certain loads and temperatures >70 ° C, there is a risk of stress corrosion cracking (SCC).

Food industry

Rolled plates made of EN AW 5083 are safe in contact with food in accordance with EN 602:2004. For this reason, this material is used in a variety of applications in industrial plants of the food industry.

Expert tip

The tolerances for thickness and flatness are very wide in rolled plates. For example, a 20 mm thick plate has a thickness tolerance of ± 0.7 mm. The flatness is specified as a percentage and is calculated longitudinally (always in the rolling direction!) and in width (always transverse to the rolling direction!). A 20 mm thick slab in format 1,520 x 3,020 mm may vary by 0.2% = 6.04 mm and 6.08 mm in width from the flatness.

In comparison, G.AL® C250 in 20 mm thickness: thickness tolerance: ± 0.1 mm, flatness: 0.13 mm.
