Product Description
Aluminium AlMg3 is a medium-strength, non-heat-treatable alloy known for its excellent atmospheric corrosion resistance and high weldability. The designations GOST AMg3 and CSN 424413 are the Russian and Czech equivalents of the European EN AW-5754 or 5454 series, depending on the exact magnesium balance.

4. Key Engineering Characteristics
-
Corrosion Resistance: Excellent. It is particularly resistant to seawater and industrial polluted atmospheres.
-
Weldability: Very High. It can be welded easily using MIG or TIG methods. It is often used in welded structures where strength is not the only priority.
-
Surface Finish: Highly suitable for anodizing, making it popular for architectural and decorative applications.
-
Formability: Excellent cold-working properties. It can be easily bent, drawn, or spun into complex shapes in the "O" temper.
5. Common Applications
-
Marine & Shipbuilding: Components for fishing boats, internal ship structures, and marine hardware.
-
Food & Chemical Industry: Storage tanks and processing equipment where hygiene and corrosion resistance are vital.
-
Automotive: Body panels, floor plates, and internal structural components.
-
Architecture: Cladding, facades, and signage (due to its excellent anodizing quality).
-
General Engineering: Tread plates (checker plates) and welded pressure vessels.
