When COSCO SHIPPING replaced 304 stainless steel with Flait’s 5086-H116 aluminum plates on container ship decks, corrosion maintenance dropped by 65% and payload increased 22 tons. As a Top 3 Chinese aluminum exporter with ASME, CE, and CCS certifications, Flait delivers mill-direct 5086 aluminum sheets (0.5-150mm thickness) proven in 50+ offshore projects from Arctic pipelines to Singaporean LNG carriers.
Flait’s proprietary BTU-3 processing technology enhances Mg₂Si₃ crystal density (+40% vs conventional 5086), achieving 98 MPa√m SCC resistance – validated by CCS 6A21 certificate.
