What Is 5083 H116 Aluminum Plate?
5083 H116 aluminum plate is a non-heat-treatable aluminum-magnesium alloy plate commonly used in marine and offshore structures. The 5083 alloy contains a relatively high magnesium content, providing a useful balance of strength, weldability and corrosion resistance.
The H116 temper is widely specified for marine service where resistance to exfoliation corrosion and intergranular corrosion is important. It is frequently selected for vessel hulls, deck plates, bulkheads, offshore modules, seawater-exposed equipment and low-temperature structures.
Compared with many heat-treatable aluminum alloys, 5083 H116 is particularly suitable for fabricated welded structures. It is an established material choice for applications exposed to saltwater, humid coastal atmospheres and demanding marine environments.
Mechanical properties, certification availability, corrosion test requirements and inspection scope vary according to thickness, plate dimensions, governing standard and project specification. Please confirm these requirements before production.

5083 H116 vs. 5083 H321, H111 and H112
All tempers use the same 5083 aluminum alloy chemistry, but their processing conditions, mechanical-property ranges and intended applications differ.
| Temper | Typical Use | Main Selection Consideration | Fabrication Characteristics |
| 5083 H116 | Marine hulls, decks, offshore structures, seawater-exposed components | Commonly specified where controlled corrosion performance is required | Good welding and fabrication performance; suitable for demanding marine service |
| 5083 H321 | Marine structures and fabricated shipbuilding components | Stabilized temper characteristics; selection depends on project specification | Excellent weldability and established marine fabrication performance |
| 5083 H111 | Formed parts, tanks and general fabrication | Often selected where forming requirements are important | Good workability with lower work-hardened condition |
| 5083 H112 | General structural components and further fabrication | Used according to structural and processing requirements | Good fabrication flexibility; properties may vary by production route |
Choose 5083 H116 When:
- The plate will be used in long-term marine or offshore service.
- The project requires corrosion-sensitive marine material selection.
- The buyer requires classification society inspection or documentation.
- The application includes hull plating, decks, bulkheads or offshore modules.
- Wide hot rolled plate and welded structural performance are important.
Consider H111 or H112 When:
- The fabrication process requires more forming flexibility.
- The part is a general structural component rather than a critical seawater-exposed area.
- The design specification does not require H116 or marine corrosion testing.
- The material will be further processed into formed tanks or curved components.
- The project focuses on general industrial use rather than certified marine service.
