5182 Fuel Tanker Aluminum Sheet Properties

For oil tankers, the weight of the tank accounts for a large proportion of the weight of the whole vehicle, and reducing the weight of the tank has become the focus of the fuel tanker manufacturers. Aluminum alloy is recognized as an ideal material for lightweight vehicles.

In recent years, in Europe and USA, the use of aluminum alloy load tanker has become very common. As the main material of the tank car body, aluminum alloy has excellent corrosion resistance and high reuse value in addition to its light weight. 95% of aluminum alloys can be reused.

Aluminum tanker plates are mainly used for tank trucks of chemical liquid and fuel. It generally chooses Al-Mg aluminum sheets like 5083 and 5182 aluminum sheet. 5182 aluminum plate is a well known anti-rust aluminum plate. Its performance is similar to that of 5A02.

Compared with 5A02, 5182 aluminum alloy has slightly higher magnesium content and has a small amount of silicon, which has a better weldability. The welding performance of 5182 aluminum plate is very good with gas welding, argon arc welding, spot welding and seam welding.

5182 aluminum plate is the latest high magnesium alloy plate born for the European road dangerous goods transportation agreement in recent years. Its tensile strength and elongation values are relatively high. The excellent quality of the 5182 alloy improves the safety of the aluminum alloy tanker. Among them, the 5182 aluminum plate has a tensile strength of more than 280MPa, a yield strength of more than 125, and an elongation of more than 26%.

Its common tempers are H111, H18, H19, H39 and O. 5182-H111 is strain hardened to a strength that is lower than what is permissible for H11 (1/8-hard). 5182-H18 is the strongest temper normally produced through the action of only strain hardening.

5182-H19 aluminum sheet is strain hardened to a strength that exceeds H18 by at least 10 MPa. It has the highest strength compared to the other variants of 5182 aluminum plate. 5182-H38 is the strongest temper normally produced through the action of strain hardening followed by stabilization. It is closely related to H18.

5183-H39 has the second highest strength compared to the other variants of 5182 aluminum. 5182-O is 5182 aluminum in the annealed condition. The corresponding elongation of 5182-O is higher than that of 5083-O and5454-O aluminum sheet.

Haomei Aluminu has rich tempers and sizes of 5182 aluminum plate. Welcome to leave message below to inquire 5182 aluminum plate price.
