The aluminum sheet suitable for tanker cylinder are mainly 5xxx and 6xxx aluminum alloys. 5xxx alloy is with Magnesium as the main alloy element. 6xxx alloy is with magnesium and silicon as the main alloy elements. The top five grade are 5052, 5083, 5754, 6061 and 6082.

Aluminum alloy 5083: It has of high Magnesium content, belonging to the heat-treated alloy, which has good workability, corrosion resistance and welding performance. It is widely used in transportation vehicles, such as ships, airplanes, vehicles and pressure vessels (tank trucks, refrigerated trucks, refrigerated containers), etc.

5052 aluminum sheet: It is the most widely used anti-rust aluminum with high strength and corrosion resistance. However, it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. The plasticity is still good during semi-cold work hardening, and the plasticity is low during cold work hardening and can be polished.

5754 aluminum sheet: It is of medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and easy processing and forming. It is a typical alloy in the Al-Mg series. 5754 aluminum sheets with different tempers are the main materials used in the automobile manufacturing industry like passenger car and fuel tanks.

6061 aluminum sheet: It has medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability, good workability, and can be anodized and colored. Because it contains a small amount of Cu, its strength is higher than 6063, and its quenching sensitivity is higher than 6063.

6082 aluminum sheet: It is an aluminum alloy plate that can be strengthened by heat treatment. It has medium strength, good welding performance and corrosion resistance. It is mainly used in transportation and structural engineering industries.
