Almag 535

Almag 535 is an aluminum-magnesium alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and good weldability. This alloy is particularly useful in applications requiring these properties, often in environments exposed to harsh conditions.

Almag 535 is most commonly used for parts that require high strength and lightweight, such as marine hardware, sports equipment, and high-stress components. Some examples of common uses are:

Marine Industry

• Boat Hulls: Highly resistant to corrosion from saltwater, making it ideal for marine environments.
• Deck Hardware: Used for fittings and other components exposed to harsh marine conditions.
• Propellers: High strength and corrosion resistance are crucial for marine propulsion systems.

Automotive Industry

• Chassis Components: Used in parts that require a combination of strength and lightweight properties.
• Truck Bodies: Ideal for components that need to resist corrosion and withstand heavy use.

Aerospace Industry

• Structural Components: Used in parts that require high strength and resistance to environmental factors.
• Aircraft Fittings: Beneficial for components exposed to various stresses and environmental conditions.

Industrial Applications

• Machinery Components: Used in parts that require durability and corrosion resistance.
• Chemical Processing Equipment: Suitable for components exposed to corrosive substances.

Construction Industry

• Architectural Structures: Used in facades, railings, and other structural elements exposed to the elements.
• Bridges: Components that need to withstand environmental stresses and corrosion.

Primarily aluminum with 7% magnesium and small amounts of manganese, iron, and silicon.

Very high strength and good corrosion resistance, excellent machinability, but lower castability compared to silicon-rich alloys.
