Friction stir welding (FSW), as a solid phase welding technology, is widely used in the manufacture of large-size aluminum alloy panels for use in marine and offshore applications.

A stiffened panel is a critical structural component in shipbuilding, consisting of a skin plate and reinforcing stiffeners welded together. It significantly increases structural strength while reducing weight.

The shipbuilding industry uses friction stir welding (FSW) to produce aluminum plates from aluminum extrusions, which are widely used in ship superstructures, deckhouses, etc.

In order to meet the needs of different marine engineering projects, MC Aluminum provides a full range of products including plates, extrusions and pipe fittings.

5086 marine aluminum plate belongs to 5 series rust-proof aluminum. Common states include O, H111, H112, H116, H321, etc. It is widely used in situations that require high corrosion resistance, good weldability and medium strength.

MC Aluminum’s 5052 marine checkered aluminum plates​ are available in thicknesses from 0.8-8.0 mm, widths from 100-2650 mm, and lengths from 500-16000 mm.

5083 patterned aluminum plate has become a common material for decks, gangways, passages and engine room walkways due to its excellent anti-slip properties and resistance to seawater corrosion.

MC Aluminum produces 5 series and 6 series marine aluminum products, including plates, sheets, coils, tubes, bars and extruded profiles, and provides aluminum products with different tempering degrees.
