Welding and machining recommendations for 5086 aluminum alloy
Welding: This alloy is easily welded using conventional methods, with excellent results achieved particularly through arc welding.
Machining: Strain-hardened tempers (H34, H36, H38) offer good machinability, while annealed (O temper) machining is more challenging but feasible with the use of lubricants. Cold working is excellent in the O state, but slightly less effective in H36 and H38 states.
Packaging for 5086 H32 H116 Aluminum Sheet
