Excellent weldability
High chemical resistance even in the marine environment
Lower mechanical properties than other aluminium alloys

Lightness, ease of welding and high chemical resistance are the key characteristics of this alloy. It is used whenever it is necessary to join several parts together to create the final component and/or where optimal corrosion resistance is required even for long periods, such as in marine environments.
