Introduction of 5083-H111/O extra wide aluminum sheet for tanker truck
At present, the aluminum alloys suitable for tank car bodies are mainly 5 series and 6 series related products, and 5083 aluminum plates are used more. Aluminum alloy tanks are mostly used in large oil tankers and semi-trailer tankers. They have the advantages of light material, rust resistance, good appearance, easy maintenance and durability, especially suitable for long-distance transportation.
A complete tank car body generally needs 4-6 aluminum plates to be welded. Among them, the important tank body is made of 5083-H111 aluminum plate, and the tank lids on both sides are made of 5083-O aluminum plate, which is softer and the O temper is softer. The lid needs to be bent, and the partition part is also in 5083-O.

Advantages of 5083-H111/O extra wide aluminum sheet for tanker truck
- 5083 aluminum plate has the characteristics of light weight, good rigidity, high strength, corrosion resistance, and stable chemical composition, which is suitable for all kinds of tank car bodies. The application of 5083 aluminum plate to the tank car body can reduce the weight of each car by 3-5 tons, thereby reducing the inertia of the body, improving the transportation efficiency and achieving the effect of energy saving and emission reduction, and has obvious advantages in traffic safety .
- Excellent material properties. Henan Chalco optimizes raw materials, strictly controls the product process of 5083 aluminum plate during the production process, and through the determination of alloy composition, optimization of melting and casting process, homogenization heat treatment and rolling process test, the product has excellent performance and meets user requirements.
- Product specifications can be customized. The tank body of the tanker generally uses an ultra-wide aluminum plate, which can reduce welding and reduce the possibility of leakage due to improper welding. Henan Chalco 5083 extra-wide aluminum plate with a width of 2600mm.
