Tankers are important transportation vehicles commonly used to ship goods such as liquids, gases and powders. Generally, the transportation volume of tank cars is relatively large, and the body is relatively heavy, which is prone to overweight. Once overweight, the risk factor is greatly increased. With the development of lightweight vehicles, traditional steel tankers have gradually been replaced by aluminum alloy tankers.
Aluminum alloy can be used for tanks, can bodies, can lids and partitions of tank cars. Common alloys include
5052 aluminum plate, 5083, 5454, 5754, 5182 aluminum sheets. Today we focus on the application of the 5083 aluminum plate on the tanker.
The 5083 aluminum plate is generally used for the can body of the tanker, the can lid and the partition part on both sides, the 5083-H111 aluminum plate used for the can body, and the 5083-O state aluminum plate used for the can lid and the partition part on both sides. So, what are the benefits of using a 5083 aluminum plate for a tanker?
5083 aluminum plate belongs to AL-Mg alloy, with magnesium content of 4.0-4.9%, outstanding anti-rust ability, high strength, high plasticity and corrosion resistance, good weldability and polishing. Used in tanker manufacturing, on the one hand, it can reduce the weight of the car body, on the other hand, it can reduce fuel consumption and environmental pollution.
Mingtai Aluminum is a professional aluminum plate manufacturer that provides
5083 aluminum sheets in various states with stable performance and excellent quality, meeting the various needs of shipbuilding manufacturers, vehicle manufacturers and mold manufacturing enterprises. At the same time, Mingtai Aluminum is still one of the few manufacturers in China that can produce ultra-wide and ultra-thick
5083 aluminum plates. The Mingtai 5083 aluminum plate is 2650mm wide and 500mm thick.
