ASTM B209 AA5454 Mirror-finished Aluminum Plate Whosaler Liquid Tankers

5454 mirror sheets offer a balanced combination of lightness, corrosion resistance, and hygiene,

making them ideal for food/chemical tankers. For detailed parameters (e.g., fatigue life, welding

specs), provide specific operational requirements!

Manufacturing Process: Extruding, Rolling, Machining, Hydraulic Pressure Bulging

Specification: 12790×2500×3900mm

● Lighter weight,bigger volume,fuel efficiency,reduces CO₂emissions
and environmental protection.

● The girder has higher overall strength because of once shapingextrusion profile technique,

high strength, low center of gravity,goodsafety performance,excellent corrosion ressistance.

● High recovery, low maintenance cost.

Our Factory own the World-advanced Equipments

Key Characteristics

♦ Alloy Type: Al-Mg alloy (5xxx series) with 2.4-3.0% Mg and 0.5-1.0% Mn, offering excellent corrosion

resistance and medium-high strength.

♦ Mirror Finish: Achieved via mechanical/electropolishing, enhancing aesthetics and cleanability.

♦ Weldability: Compatible with MIG/TIG; post-weld heat treatment unnecessary

♦ Chemical Resistance: Resists saltwater, weak acids/alkalis, ideal for food-grade (e.g., milk) and

chemical liquids

Core Advantages

✔ Lightweight: 35% lighter than stainless steel (density: 2.68 g/cm³), reducing fuel consumption.

✔ Stress Corrosion Resistance: Optimized Mg content avoids SCC risks seen in high-Mg alloys (e.g., 5083).

✔ Cryogenic Performance: Maintains properties at -196°C, suitable for LNG tanks.

✔ Hygienic Surface: Mirror finish minimizes residue buildup, compliant with FDA/EHEDG standards.

Recommended Tempers

H32/H34: Partially hardened, balances strength (UTS≥250 MPa) and formability.

O Temper: Annealed, optimal for deep drawing (e.g., tank heads).

Comparison with Other Alloys for Tankers

Why 5454 Over Others?

Vs 5052: Higher strength for pressurized tanks.

Vs 5083: More cost-effective for non-extreme conditions.

Vs 6061: Superior corrosion resistance in wet environments.

Tanker Truck Applications

• Tank Body: 5454-H32 mirror sheet (3-6mm thickness), welded without coating.

• Interior: Mirror polish reduces liquid retention, meeting sanitary standards .

• End-Use: Food transport (dairy, edible oils), mild chemicals (pH-neutral).
