What materials are used to make car fuel tanks?
1 Answers
Car fuel tanks are primarily made from resin, aluminum alloy, and sheet metal. Below is an extended introduction to car fuel tanks: 1. Metal fuel tanks: Metal fuel tanks are divided into sheet metal and aluminum alloy types. Currently, the preferred material for metal fuel tanks is aluminum alloy. This is because aluminum alloy tanks are lighter, reducing the vehicle's load, and they are also corrosion-resistant. Many heavy-duty trucks now use aluminum alloy fuel tanks. 2. Plastic fuel tanks: Plastic fuel tanks are made from synthetic resin. Plastic tanks are even lighter in weight and also resistant to corrosion. They offer good insulation and ductility, strong impact resistance, and high plasticity.
