5454 Aluminum Plate for Oil Tankers
At present,carbon steel and aluminum alloy are two common material for making oil tankers. For tank trucks under 10 tons, carbon steel can be a proper choice. Vehicles with this volume are generally used for mobile refueling and have no worry for overweight.
For fuel tankers of of more than 10 tons, aluminum alloy is usually better. It can greatly reduce the weight of the tank truck, fuel costs and pollution. Aluminum plate for oil tankers make use of its properties such as low density, high mechanical properties, good electrical conductivity, strong corrosion resistance, good heat dissipation performance and easy processing on the basis of maintaining the use functions of the original carbon steel tanker.
In order to prevent corrosion of the car body, the choice of aluminum alloys is very important. It is necessary to choose light weight, low density and strong corrosion resistance material for tank cylinder. 5454 aluminum is such a material.
Compared with 5052 aluminum, the strength of 5454 aluminum is about 20% higher. Its corrosion resistance is better than 5154 in harsh environments. Haomei Aluminum can provide all tempers of 5454 aluminum plate such as O, H12 and H14. In terms of performance, it not only has high strength and high corrosion resistance, but also has good plasticity and good forming processability.
5454 aluminum sheet has reasonable composition and the oil tankers made of it has at least 15 years. The aluminum alloy tanker is also of higher safety, which does not produce sparks in collision.
