Alloy sheet 5083 H111 is widely used for the production of boats, house-boats and catamarans.
Manufacturers of small vessels produce simple profiles from aluminum sheets using sheet bending machines, and also give a complex shape to the hull of the boat. In this regard, high demands are placed on the plasticity of the material.
KUMZ developed the 5083KM material (stands for "KUMZ Marine") and specification TU 1-804-643-2025 specifically for the needs of shipbuilding. The new material has improved ductility characteristics and is undergoing bending tests.
Product range 5083KM
Other sizes are available on request.
