5454 5182 Aluminum Plate for Tank Truck

Energy saving, emission reduction and lightweight structure have become global trends. Compared with steel, aluminum alloy tank trucks have the characteristics of lower density, good corrosion resistance, easy welding, long life, easy recycling, reduced emissions, and no charge accumulation.In recent years, the share of aluminum alloy tank trucks in Europe, the United States, Australia, Japan and other countries has reached more than 90%. The materials used for aluminum alloy tank trucks are generally Al-Mg alloys, including 5083, 5182 and 5454.

5454 aluminum plate belongs to the 5xxx Al-Mg alloy. It can also be used as rust-proof aluminum and can adapt to harsh corrosive environments. Its strength is about 20% higher than that of 5052 aluminum plate, and its characteristics are similar to that of 5154 aluminum plate, but its corrosion resistance in harsh environments is better than 5154. It is commonly used in fuel tanks, oil tanker body, marine facility pipelines, automobile wheels, etc.

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

5454 aluminum alloy 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℃ , 260℃, 250℃, 230℃, and 200℃ respectively, and the holding time is 1 hour.

The elongation of aluminum 5182 for aluminum truck is more than 60% higher than that of ordinary 5 series aluminum plates. It is corrosion-resistant and saves maintenance: no anti-corrosion treatment is required during the life cycle, extending the service life. When 5182 aluminum alloy is used for welding, the mechanical properties during welding may be achieved to the minimum values specified for the base metal.

The performance of 5182 aluminum plate is similar to that of 5A02, but because the magnesium content is slightly higher than that of 5A02, and a small amount of silicon is added, the weldability is better than that of 5A02. 5182 aluminum plate is one of the best-selling products on the market currently, and its layout is relatively flat.
