5059 aluminum alloy armor plate is a key material used in the manufacture of defense equipment such as military vehicles, aircraft and ships. 5059 Armor Aluminum Plate has a relatively low density and high strength, making it an ideal lightweight protective material.

Armor Plate Why choose aluminum plate?

1. Armor aluminum plate has low density and good mechanical properties

The density of aluminum is 1/3 that of steel. Under the same surface density of aluminum alloy and armor steel, the thickness is 3 times that of steel, and its bending stiffness is 9 times that of armor steel. Therefore, the use of aluminum alloy can significantly improve the stiffness of the structure.

For every 1 kg the armored vehicle loses, the power equipment required to carry it can be reduced by 0.6 kg, which in turn reduces the vehicle's overall combat weight.

The use of aluminum alloys on armored vehicles can cause a "chain-like" mass reduction effect. Without reducing the anti-elastic properties, the use of aluminum alloy armor materials can reduce the mass by 6% to 20%, and some can even reach 50%.

2. Armored aluminum plates have good protective performance and high mobility

Armor materials must have comprehensive properties of resistance to penetration and fragmentation, so armor materials are required to have both high strength and high toughness. During the firing test, the areal density of armored aluminum alloy at most angles of incidence was lower than that of armored steel, and its protection coefficient was higher than that of armored steel in terms of resistance to large projectiles and high rates of fire, especially to shell fragments.

3. Good processing and craftsmanship, suitable for mass production

The unit price of aluminum alloy is higher than that of ordinary armor steel, but when aluminum alloy is used to manufacture military vehicles, the mass of aluminum alloy required is less than that of steel, which reduces the price difference between the two.

Aluminum alloy armor has greater bending stiffness, which can eliminate the need for reinforcing ribs and reduce the manufacturing cost of armored vehicles. At the same time, extruded, forged and cast aluminum alloy parts can also be used for welding, which not only reduces mass, but also greatly reduces processing costs.

In addition, the processing and welding speed of aluminum alloy exceeds that of armor steel, which can reduce production expenses and costs. Reducing the number of structural parts of armored vehicles can save equipment and power, save energy consumption, and bring economic benefits.

5059 aluminum alloy armor plates are known for their excellent strength, lightweight and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for protecting critical equipment and personnel.
