*Mechanical property limits.

The ultimate and yield strengths of alloy 5086-H34, along with its elongated properties, are essentially the same as those for alloy 6061­ T6. But because 5086-H34 is a 5XXX alloy, fatigue strength is 50 percent higher. And it exhibits better formability. So alloy 5086-H34 tread plate can be substituted for alloy 6061­T6 tread plate with complete confidence in most situations.
