ASTM B209 5454 Aluminum Alloy Plate Used for Tank Trailer / Cylinder Tank
5454 Aluminum Alloy is an alloy in the wrought aluminum-magnesium family. It is closely related to
5154 Aluminum Alloy. As an aluminum -magnesium alloy, it combines moderate to high strength with
excellent weldability.5454 aluminum plate is a typical rust-proof aluminum. Its strength is about the
same as that of 5154 and about 20% greater than that of 5052 aluminum sheet.
5454 Aluminum Material Advantages for tank trailer
Aluminum tank trailers are used to transport petrochemical products such as diesel, gasoline, kerosene,
methanol. They are light weight with mass as little as 6 tons. Therefore, the weight of goods carried can
be increased. As the tank body is made of aluminum alloy, this type of trailer does not need anti rust
treatment and there is no need to worry about rust residue or damage done by rust.
Aluminum tanker trailers has much better fuel economy compared to tankers made from other material thanks
to its lightweight. If traveling 12,000km a year, compared with a steel tank, and it will save at least 1800L of
fuel annually.

Packages & Transportation
We use the dust proof kraft paper packages with wood pallet, it has the water proof plastic layer inside,
2 labels on the surface of every package.
For oversize width, so we use platform flat container (FR Container) for the shipment.
