Shipbuilding Aluminium Plates

At Solitaire Steel & Engineering LLP, based in Khetwadi, Mumbai, India, we specialize in supplying and exporting high-quality shipbuilding aluminium plates. Our products are widely recognized for their superior strength, corrosion resistance, and adherence to global maritime standards. We have supplied these aluminum plates to numerous countries, ensuring top-notch quality and performance for both civil and military maritime applications. Our shipbuilding aluminium plates, including 5083, 6061, and 5052, are meticulously crafted to meet the demanding requirements of ship construction, offering reliability and long-lasting performance even in harsh marine environments.

Shipbuilding aluminum plates are essential in the construction of both commercial and military vessels due to their low density, high corrosion resistance, and excellent weldability. Common alloys such as 5083, 5052, and 6061 are widely used in various components of ships, including hulls, decks, and bulkheads. For instance, 5083 aluminum plates are frequently used in civilian maritime industries for hull construction, while 6061 aluminum and 5052 aluminum are preferred in military vessels for their high strength and resistance to corrosion. The price of these aluminum plates varies based on the alloy and thickness, with 5052 aluminum generally being more cost-effective compared to 6061, which offers superior strength and is ideal for military-grade applications.
