5083 is a non-heat-treatable aluminium-magnesium alloy. Published H321 product data identifies it as a marine-grade alloy with good seawater service performance and strong post-weld characteristics.
5083 H321 Aluminium Sheets & Plates Specifications
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Alloy | Aluminium Alloy 5083 |
| Temper | H321 |
| Product Form | Sheets & Plates |
| ASTM / ASME | ASTM B209 / ASME SB209, where applicable |
| Marine Specification | ASTM B928 / B928M, where applicable |

| UNS | A95083 |
| Werkstoff Number | 3.3547 |
| Alloy Designation | AlMg4.5Mn / AlMg4.5Mn0.7 |
| Surface | Mill finish or as specified |
The applicable specification should be stated in the purchase requirement because ASTM B209 and ASTM B928/B928M apply to different product requirements and service conditions. ASTM B928/B928M specifically covers qualifying high-magnesium aluminium alloy sheet and plate products for marine service, including specified 5083 H321 material.
Available Sizes of 5083 H321 Aluminium Sheets & Plates
5083 H321 Aluminium Sheet and Plate dimensions vary according to thickness, mill capability and available stock. The material requirement should therefore specify the required thickness, width and length rather than relying only on the alloy designation.
One established H321 stock range published by Righton & Blackburns includes:
| Published Plate Size | Published Thickness Range |
|---|---|
| 4000 × 2000 mm | 3.0 mm to 25.0 mm |
| 6000 × 2000 mm | 3.0 mm to 40.0 mm |
These are published stock dimensions from that supplier and should not be interpreted as a universal size range for all 5083 H321 suppliers. Other producers and stockholders publish different dimensions depending on their rolling capability and inventory.
For a quotation, please provide:
- Required thickness
- Required width
- Required length
- Sheet or plate requirement
- 5083 H321 temper
- Applicable material standard

|---|---|
| Aluminium (Al) | Balance |
| Magnesium (Mg) | 4.00–4.90% |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.40–1.00% |
| Chromium (Cr) | 0.05–0.25% |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.40% max |
