The use of aluminum plates in tank truck body manufacturing is a future development trend. Using aluminum plates to make tanker body can reduce the total weight of each vehicle by 3-5 tons on the original basis, thereby reducing the inertial force of the vehicle body.

The biggest advantage of alloy aluminum plates in the tank truck industry is that they improve transportation efficiency and can also achieve the actual effect of energy saving and consumption reduction.

5454 aluminum sheet is a typical 5xxx aluminum alloy. It is widely used in fuel tanks, marine facility pipelines, automobile wheels, etc. 5454 alloy aluminum plate has outstanding performance in various types of vehicles such as cars, trucks, and tank truck bodies.

Its other names are 3.3537, N51, and A95454. The general material properties of 5454 aluminum alloy are: Density: 2.69 g/cm3, or 168 lb/ft3. Young's modulus: 70 GPa, or 10 Msi. Conductivity: 34% IACS. Ultimate tensile strength: 240-300 MPa, or 35-44 ksi. Thermal conductivity: 130W/m-K. Thermal expansion: 22.3μm/m-K.

5454 aluminum plate has excellent welding properties and can be joined by common welding methods such as MIG welding, TIG welding and resistance welding. This makes it widely used in welding applications in areas such as aerospace, automotive and construction.

5454 aluminum plate production process: the cold rolling processing rate is more than 70%, and the annealing temperatures in the 0, H22, H24, H26, and H28 states are 300°C, 260°C, 250°C, 230°C, and 200°C respectively, and the holding time is 1 hour. The 5454 alloy H2n and 0-state plates produced according to this process have stable performance, good formability, and comply with EN485 standard specifications.

When packaging 5454 aluminum alloys, the aluminum plate should be sandwiched with paper or film to ensure that the surface of the aluminum sheet is intact and without scratches. When packing, wooden pallets are installed and reinforced with steel strips to avoid collisions during transportation and ensure that the geometric shape of the aluminum plates remains unchanged. When exporting products, they are packaged in wooden boxes and pallets with fumigation markings. Welcome to contact us for learning more about 5454 aluminum alloy uses.
