Why is 5754 aluminum plate used for auto engine ?

The first is lightness. In this era of lightweighting, even if one kilogram can be lost, manufacturers are willing to do it. All-aluminum engines can reduce weight by about 10-20 kilograms compared to cast iron engines, which can reduce vehicle fuel consumption. .

Secondly, the all-aluminum engine has good heat dissipation and strong anti-explosion properties. Good heat dissipation means that the engine oil heats up quickly during vehicle startup, causing less wear on the cylinder, and the vehicle can enter the working state faster; and good anti-knock resistance means that the vehicle can use lower-grade fuel, saving the owner Some expenses.

The aluminum for engine can be 5754 aluminum  plate. The 5754 aluminum plate has the characteristics of medium strength, excellent processing performance, good corrosion resistance, weldability and easy processing and forming. The 5754 aluminum plate in different heat treatment states is the automobile manufacturing industry (car (Doors, molds, seals), the main materials used in the can industry.

5754 aluminum plate is also widely used in welding structures, storage tanks, pressure vessels, ship structures and offshore installations, transportation tanks. In addition, at present, the alloy grade is used more in high-speed railways in China. Structural parts such as welding of internal sheet metal parts.
