Marine Shipbuilding

Aluminum Alloys Materials for Marine & Naval Shipbuilding

Marine and naval applications put aluminum under constant stress from saltwater corrosion, structural loading, and dynamic sea conditions. The right alloy selection and consistent material quality are critical — not just for performance, but for the long-term structural integrity of the vessel.

Taiwan Ye Fong Aluminium supplies marine-grade aluminum plate, seamless tube, and bar to shipbuilders and naval contractors worldwide. We hold ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) certification, which is a mandatory qualification for aluminum materials used in certified vessel construction. Our products comply with ASTM B928, AMS, and customer-specific naval standards.

Marine Aluminum Alloys Materials We Supply

  • 5083 (H116 / H321)

The most widely used alloy in marine structural applications. Excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion, good weldability, and strong structural performance make it the standard choice for hull plating, deck structures, bulkheads, and superstructure on naval and commercial vessels.

  • 5086 (H116 / H321)

Similar corrosion resistance to 5083 with slightly higher strength. Used in hull plating, tank structures, and marine structural components where additional strength is required.

  • 6082 (T6)

A heat-treatable alloy used in marine extrusions, structural profiles, and tube applications where a combination of strength and corrosion resistance is needed.

  • 5052 (H32 / H34)

Used in marine fittings, tanks, and secondary structures requiring good formability and corrosion resistance.

 


 

ABS Certification

Ye Fong holds ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) type approval, confirming that our aluminum materials meet the quality and traceability requirements for certified vessel construction. Full material traceability, mill test reports, and ABS-certified documentation are available for all marine-grade orders.
