Why are aluminum RIBs replacing fiberglass boats?

Although fiberglass boats have existed for decades, aluminum boats are becoming the preferred choice for manufacturers and customers, and the answer lies in their stability, safety, and economy.

Lightweight and cost-effective

Aluminum is lighter than fiberglass, significantly reducing the weight of the boat. At the same horsepower, the aluminum alloy RIB travels faster and has a shallower draft, reducing fuel consumption and improving fuel efficiency.

High strength and good safety

The strength of aluminum is close to that of high-quality steel and much higher than fiberglass. When impacted, aluminum hulls are usually only dented and not easily broken, with stronger resistance to sinking (even if one airbag damaged, the others can still float).

In addition, aluminum has excellent fire resistance, with a melting point higher than 500 ℃, which can effectively reduce the risk of fire.

Easy maintenance and low repair cost

Aluminum hulls are relatively easy to repair after damage, while fiberglass needs to be repaired in a timely manner to prevent water absorption and foaming. The low maintenance requirements of aluminum further reduce long-term usage costs.

Corrosion resistance and long service life

Aluminum Hull is not easy to rust, and the aluminum oxide layer formed after oxidation can prevent further corrosion. Under standardized construction and regular maintenance, aluminum boats can be used for decades, far surpassing easily corroded fiberglass or wood.
