Abstract :While many materials are used in transportation, aluminum and its alloys have become one of the leading materials of the sector for fuel tankers. Thanks to the development of technology, the mechanical properties of aluminum materials have been greatly improved, and the use of aluminum in such applications has increased. Especially 5000 series aluminum alloys have a significant place in the sector. In this research, the effect of the cylindrical twisting process on the material in the transition cone manufacturing of fuel tankers was observed. 0°, 45° and 90° samples were taken to the rolling direction of the 5182 alloy used in the cylindrical bending process. Tensile and three-point bending tests, macro, micro hardness measurements and microstructure examinations of these samples were carried out. Microstructures before and after drawing were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). As a result of the tensile test, the highest tensile resistance of 286 MPa was observed for the materials in the 90° direction. In the three-point bending tests, the highest resistance with 358 MPa was observed in the materials in the 90° direction. The average Brinell hardnesses of three different materials were measured as 65.7, 64.8 and 65.1 HB, respectively, and the Vickers hardnesses were measured as 78.9, 79.04 and 79.1 HV.Keywords : Aluminum, Rolling, Tensile Test, Three-Point Bending Test
