Many tank trucks are now manufactured from aluminum alloy, so what are the advantages of penetrating aluminum plates compared to other metals? Why should we choose aluminum alloy cans? Let's introduce its advantages next.

Aluminum alloy tank truck has the following advantages:

First, the weight is light

The dead weight of aluminum alloy tank truck is lighter than that of carbon steel tanks, and light weight can also increase the payload of the vehicle, so that the transportation volume increases, and ultimately more profits. At the same time, it can also reduce the fuel consumption of the vehicle during transportation, according to studies show that 60% of the fuel consumption of the tank truck comes from the self-weight of the vehicle, every 1 ton of light vehicle can save 0.6 liters of fuel consumption per 10 kilometers, so that in the long-term use process can save a lot of fuel consumption, but also reduce the wear of tires.

Second, long service life, strong corrosion resistance

Aluminum alloy material is the lightest weight, stable chemical properties, not easy to corrode, the service life of the general aluminum alloy tank truck tank body is about 15-20 years. It is corrosion-resistant, will not pollute the oil, the general aluminum alloy tank does not need to spray paint, so that in the production process of the vehicle will reduce a process, and the later maintenance is much simpler.

Third, the appearance is beautiful and the performance is superior

Aluminum alloy has beautiful appearance, good ductility, the use of sub-warehouse technology can be compatible with the storage and transportation of a variety of materials, the use of closed filling system is more than 1 times higher than the traditional loading and unloading efficiency.

4. High security

Safety is very important for tank trucks, the body of aluminum alloy tank trucks is relatively light, the center of gravity is low, so it is safer to drive; Aluminum alloy is a non-combustible material, and it is not easy to produce sparks, and the accumulation of static electricity is less, which greatly reduces the probability of accidents; Aluminum alloy is easy to deform, so that the energy generated by the collision can be absorbed in the event of a collision, and the tank is not easy to crack.

Fifth, the recovery value is higher

The price of aluminum is relatively high, so when the aluminum alloy can is scrapped, its recycling price is also relatively high.
