Marine Grade 5083-H116 aluminium is ideal for the construction of workboats, patrol boats to some of the world's largest high-speed Military vessels and now Modular Construction Barges

Like steel, aluminium has considerable ductility giving it the ability to withstand permanent deformation without rupture. It has one third the modulus of elasticity of steel and then can absorb the energy of an impact over a greater distance than steel

All customers demand vessels with proven performance to withstand the harsh Marine Environment. Marine Grade 5083-H116 delivers just that. High Strength with Low Weight and excellent corrosion resisting properties, the versatile benefits of aluminium's strength and weldability are well documented

The Sabrecraft MB12000 Modular Barge System is constructed using High-Grade Marine Aluminium Plate 5083 - H116. All plate used is sourced from factories with Class Approval to BV, DNV, GL or ABS

Benefits + Features of Sabrecraft's MB12000 System
o Commercial Grade - Deck Loading 3 tonne per m2
o Military Grade - Deck Loading 12 tonne per m2
o Certification - Current vessels are Designed and Certified to AMSA 2E as standard. Sabrecraft can also manufacture to ISO or Class through a society of choice
o Cost Effective - With the Sabrecraft MB12000 System, even after 10 years of commercial use your investment will not have deteriorated in structural integrity. The resale price expected can be as high as 50% of the purchase price even after 10 years. Maintenance costs calculated over those 10 years will be virtually Zero

Steel on the other hand would be at the end of its commercial life with constant high maintenance costs. Resale price would be as low as 20% of the purchase price. The estimated maintenance cost for the steel barge over those 10 years would have exceeded the purchase price!
o Durability - We only use Marine Grade 5083-H116 plate certified to BV, DNV, ABS or other Class Societies. Not only does modern 5083-H116 aluminium plate have strength, it also has far superior corrosion resistance in harsh ocean environments compared to Steel
o Easy Assembly - These barges use the Sabrecraft Bolt Through System for assembly with standard tools and lifting equipment
o Superior Stability - As these Modules bolt securely together, they create an extremely stable work platform compared to typical Pin together Systems on the market
o Light Weight - Making modules easy to load/unload and assemble on site compared to steel at 3 times the weight. Most of the assembly can be carried out with typical Franna type crane
o Shipping Container Transportable - Modules fit into a standard 40FT HC shipping container
o Truck Transportable - These Commercial Grade Modules can be double stacked to 2.80 meters, within standard trucking gauge and are still within weight limits
o Maintenance - Aluminium is very low compared to Steel, no rusting, chipping, blasting and no painting required. Barges are an expensive asset that typically require constant expensive maintenance if constructed from Steel. Barges made from Marine Grade Aluminium require none of the above
o Shallow Draft - Aluminium is 3 times lighter than Steel. This weight reduction reduces the vessels draft allowing you to work in far more locations, closer to shore
o Stackable - The design is such that Bollards, Anodes and Spud Chutes are all flush mounted allowing the Modules to be stacked
o Modular System - The Sabrecraft MB12000 System is a Copyright Protected System
o Spud Chutes - These are built in as a standard feature for the Port/Starboard modules
o Electrolysis Corrosion - Sabrecraft have incorporated a water flow through design so that water can pass between the barges once assembled. This drastically reduces corrosion issues from modules touching
o Anodes - Are recessed to minimise damage
o Bollards - Are recessed to allow for stacking and clear movement on deck
