5086 Aluminum Pipe

5086 Aluminum Pipe is an alloyed aluminum pipe. Aluminum is a light weight, corrosion resistant and fragile material that has high reaction rate with water than steel has. These properties make aluminum to be used in a number of applications. However, the 5086-H32 Aluminum Pipe is made with an alloyed aluminum to overcome some of the weak mechanical properties of the pure aluminum material. The addition of manganese in the 5086 Aluminum Seamless Pipe makes it stronger and eliminates the corrosion when in contact with water. Aluminum reacts with water but the alloyed aluminum does not. So the alloy is used in sea water applications and marine related environments. The most advantageous property of the aluminum alloys is that they are very lightweight. This property is used in applications where energy is needed to move the parts that are in transportation industry.

There are different shapes as well. Aluminum 5086 Box Pipes are one such example. Box pipes are used mostly in structural applications that require strength. The 5086-H32 Aluminum Welded Pipe is stronger and much harder. This grade is used in natural gas, oil and petroleum industries. Depending on the application requirements and the cost benefits, the selection of material will vary. The Aluminum 5086-H32 ERW Pipes can be welded upon and can be used with other material made pipelines. The 5086 Aluminum Alloy Hollow Pipe is the most used type in this grade. There are box pipes and other shapes such as the square and rectangular pipes as well. The Aluminum Alloy 5086 Round Pipes are the most used type. Next to steel, aluminum is the most used material. The 5086-H32 Aluminum Alloy Square Pipes are one of the many variations used in various industries. There are many other variations to provide the necessary mechanical properties needed in different applications.
