Aluminum tanker trucks are most of the models of commercial vehicle aluminum plates on the market today, and the types of tanker trucks are oil tanker trucks, cement tanker trucks, natural gas tanker trucks, sprinkler trucks and so on. These large tank trucks are experiencing a steel to aluminum transformation stage, at present, the proportion of aluminum tank trucks or all-aluminum tank trucks in the market is increasing and is warmly sought after by the public. The 5083 extra wide aluminum plate is the main alloy material for aluminum tank trucks.
5083 ultra-wide aluminum plate in the tank car material part is very widely used, because the tank car is generally longer, the length of 4-12.5 meters. The carrying capacity of the tank body is also relatively large, to the tanker truck, for example, the capacity specification has more than 4 kinds, there are 2 tons, 8 tons, 10 tons, 30 tons, etc., tanker truck volume also has the size of the difference. For example, the volume of small tanker in 3000L-5000L, used for small distribution, factories and construction sites with more. The volume of common tanker is about 18000-23000L, used in general gas station or large factory. The volume of tractor-trailer tanker is usually around 40,000L, which is generally used for oil distribution in large gas stations. At present, more than 90% of the aluminum plates from tanker trucks to other tanker trucks are welded with 5083 extra wide aluminum plates.
Tanker car type enterprises purchased 5083 ultra-wide aluminum plate of the common width of 2.2 meters, the thickness of 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, a tanker car is usually used 4-6 pieces of ultra-wide aluminum plate splicing and become. Aluminum tankers are about 20% lighter than steel tankers of the same size, but transportation can be increased by 30%. At the same time, due to the high strength of 5083 alloy used in aluminum tank trucks and corrosion resistance, wear resistance and other characteristics of 5083 ultra-wide aluminum plate welded aluminum alloy tank trucks are more wear-resistant and durable, long life. More economical and environmentally friendly. Especially in recent years, government departments have increased the advocacy of all-aluminum tank cars and the environmental needs of energy saving and emission reduction, the demand for 5083 extra wide aluminum plate is further improving, and the domestic 5083 aluminum plate for tank cars is rapidly expanding.
There is still a huge space for 5083 extra wide aluminum plate to be developed in the domestic market. Domestic aluminum plate manufacturers should try to take advantage of the development trend of lightweight, seize the huge market of aluminum plate for tank trucks, and seek long-term development for their enterprises.
