Aluminum Angles – Series 5086

Aluminum 5086 is a desirable aluminum-magnesium alloy, offering strong corrosion resistance and high electrical conductivity at reasonable cost. Through stain hardening and cold working, 5086 increases in strength; the alloy can endure harsh environments, leading to its popularity in applications such as armor plating, transportation equipment, and marine components. Continental Steel offers Aluminum 5086 in the form of angles, typically rounded or squared off at 90 degrees, for use in structural components, architectural designs, and framing.
