The Versatile Uses of 5754 Aluminium Alloy

5754 aluminum alloy, also known as aluminium 3.3535 is a typical 5xxx aluminum sheet, which is widely used in passenger cars, fuel tanker, ships and other transportation tools.

Fuel tank

Fuel tanks are a necessity in modern car production. The use of aluminum alloy not only reduces the weight, but also the fuel tank is not easy to rust, eliminating the trouble of regular cleaning. Therefore, since 2000, aluminum alloy materials have been widely used in foreign automobile fuel tanks, especially in developed countries such as Europe and the United States.

5754 aluminum plate is often used as the the fuel tank material for automobiles or heavy trucks. It has the advantages of corrosion resistance, light weight, long product life cycle, and high recycling rate.

Engine cover

The main requirements of the engine cover are heat insulation and sound insulation, light weight and strong rigidity. The 5754 aluminum plate used for the engine cover meets its requirements. The 5754 aluminum plate used for the engine cover has many advantages, including high strength, good formability, high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.

Oil tankers

5754 aluminum alloy is a main aluminum alloy for making tank trucks. It is of medium strength, good corrosion resistance, weldability and easy processing and forming. It is a typical alloy in Al-Mg alloys.

Ships

5754 aluminum sheet has very good corrosion resistance, which can reduce the corrosion of seawater and atmosphere to a certain extent and prolong the service life of the ship. At the same time, the weight of aluminum is 1/3 of that of steel, but its strength is twice that of steel.

In this way, the dead weight of the ship is reduced, the speed of the ship is greatly accelerated, and the fuel is reduced. In addition, the 5754 aluminum has good processing performance and weldability, which greatly improves the safety of the ship.
