5000 Series 5454 Mirror Finish Aluminum Sheet For Trailer Tank
5000 Series 5454 Mirror Finish Aluminum Sheet Used for Trailer Tank
5454 Aluminum Alloy is an alloy in the wrought Al-Mg family. It is often used in parts that require
complex forming and bending, such as heads and partitions of oil tankers.
5454 mirror aluminum sheet has decorative performance, high temperature resistance and high
reflectivity; it can improve the aesthetics of the tanker and provide a good self-cooling effect.
Applications of Aluminum Plate for Oil Tank Trucks
Aluminum alloys 5454, 5754, 5052, 5083, 5182, and 6061 are widely used for tank trailers. We produce
5052, 5454, 6061, and 3003 aluminum sheets for customers in Mexico who use these materials to produce
trailer tanks. 5454 is used for the tank body, 5052 for the head and baffles, 6061 for pipe fittings
to connect with valves using screws, and 3003 for ladders and access holes.
5454 Aluminum Alloy Advantages for Tank Trailers
- Lightweight design: Compared with traditional steel, 5454 aluminum plate has a lower density, which helps to realize the lightweight design of tank trucks and improve fuel economy and transportation efficiency.
- High strength: 5454 aluminum sheet has high strength and can withstand mechanical stress and impact loads.
- Good corrosion resistance: 5454 aluminum sheet can resist the corrosion of common fuels and oils, prolonging the service life of the tanker.
- Weldability: 5454 aluminum sheet has good welding performance and can be reliably connected with other materials.
