Aluminum Air Tube Specifications

Aluminum air tanks are in high demand due to their features. The prominent features are as follows:

• Compared to air tubes made of steel, they are significantly lighter, up to 70% lighter. This results in much less load on the vehicle, thus saving fuel.
• Aluminum material exhibits the desired level of resistance to corrosion. This ensures much greater durability and a longer lifespan in harsh weather and environmental conditions.
• It protects the air brake circuits in the vehicle from potential corrosion. It extends the lifespan not only of the system itself but also of the brake mechanisms, preventing potential accidents.
• It is quite cost-effective when considering after-sales service costs. Compared to steel tubes, it has much lower maintenance costs.
• Manufactured from AlMg4,5Mn0.7 (5083) material in accordance with standards. Each product undergoes a 100% leak test. It guarantees a 100% rust and dust-free clean product surface. Connection kits are designed and manufactured for each different air cylinder.
• Air cylinder models start from 1 liter and reach volumes up to 120 liters. They are manufactured in accordance with TS EN 286-2 standards, with both bracketed and non-bracketed models.

Thanks to the advantages of aluminum air cylinders, demand is rapidly increasing worldwide. To meet this demand, SMTR Group is continuing its investments at a rapid pace. With our presence on 6 continents, air cylinders, which hold an important place in our product range, are manufactured with state-of-the-art equipment. Air cylinder models, produced with superior production standards, are manufactured with zero defects thanks to our automated robotic production lines. As with our fuel tanks, trailer crates, oil tanks, and other products, we manufacture according to European standards and have earned all the necessary certifications.

Applications of Air Cylinders

When examining the application areas of aluminum air cylinders, two main categories emerge. These are:

• Working in an integrated manner with air brake circuits.
• For use in trucks, trailers, semi-trailers and buses.

We have a global presence by working directly with truck, trailer, and bus manufacturers. Our references include some of the world's most prestigious vehicle manufacturers.

All air tank models produced by SMTR Group are manufactured in accordance with European standards. Our approach, which prioritizes quality above all else, combined with our investments in robotics on our production lines and our zero-defect procedure, allows us to obtain all necessary certifications. All our air cylinder products are CE certified and meet all required criteria.

We ship our air cylinders, ranging in volume from 1 liter to 120 liters, to all corners of the world. We share our 57 years of experience, our presence on 6 continents, and our strict quality control standards with all our customers.
