Aluminium Bus Floor Sheet
Aug-07-2025
As a supplier with many years of experience in the checkered aluminum sheet industry, we Haomei Aluminum prioritize the core needs of bus operations and specialize in providing specialized aluminium bus floor sheet that combines safety, durability and affordability. Our aluminium checkered sheet for bus floor meets key requirements such as anti-slip, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and lightweighting. Due to its comprehensive performance advantages, patterned aluminum sheet has become a mainstream choice for bus flooring worldwide.
1. Selected Alloys Suitable for High-Frequency Bus Use
We primarily supply two series: 5052 aluminum-magnesium alloy and 3003 aluminum-manganese alloy.
- 5052 Aluminum alloy: Contains an aluminum content of ≥95% and a magnesium content of 2.2-2.8%. With a hardness of 60HB and strong impact resistance, it can withstand the pressure of over 1,000 passengers per day and boasts a service life of 10-15 years, nearly double that of ordinary rubber flooring.
- 3003 Aluminum alloy: 3x the corrosion resistance of 5052, making it particularly suitable for humid and rainy environment. It has been tested for 480 hours in a salt spray test and remains rust-free, making it a perfect match for spilled beverages and water usage in vehicles.
2. Anti-slip Design: A Strong Line of Defense
Our aluminum flooring sheet features a five-bar pattern, optimized through hundreds of tests:
The pattern angle is scientifically arranged between 60 and 80 degrees, with a height precision of 0.1-1.2mm. The friction coefficient remains stable at 0.6-0.7 (compliant with EN 13845 R12), maintaining a friction coefficient of ≥0.7 even in wet conditions, significantly exceeding the industry average.
Customizable patterns such as diamond patterns and multi-rib patterns are supported. The pattern density can be adjusted to enhance anti-slip performance for different vehicle types, such as double-decker buses and short-distance express buses, ensuring passenger safety during sudden braking and boarding and alighting.
3. Lightweight + High Strength, Helping Reduce Operational Costs
With a density of only 2.7g/cm³, it's 20% lighter than stainless steel and 30% lighter than rubber flooring. This overall vehicle weight reduction can reduce energy consumption by 5-8%. Based on average daily bus mileage of 300 kilometers, this translates to annual fuel savings of over HK$12,000 per vehicle.
The standard thickness of 1.5-4mm offers a balanced balance of load-bearing capacity and weight reduction. Load-bearing tests show it can withstand 800kg of pressure per square meter without deformation, meeting the special needs of wheelchairs, strollers, and other vehicles.
4. Customized Service
We understand that each bus's floor structure and operating environment vary, so we offer comprehensive customization services:
- Customized Size: We support cutting to any size from 1000mm×2000mm to 1500mm×6000mm, with a tolerance of ≤±0.5mm, ensuring a perfect fit with the floor frames of different bus models.
- Surface Treatment: Available options include fluorocarbon spray coating (50% increased weather resistance), anodizing (wear resistance up to 0.8), and anti-static coating (resistance 10⁶-10⁹Ω), meeting the needs of special applications such as tunnel buses and new energy buses.
- Quick Prototyping: Samples of special patterns and coatings can be produced within 3 days, and we collaborate with customers for installation and testing to ensure 100% compatibility before mass production.
5. Quality Commitment: Full Process Control and Complete Qualifications
- Source Control: We use aluminum ingots from leading manufacturers. Each batch is accompanied by a GB/T 3618-2006 chemical composition test report to eliminate contaminated and recycled aluminum.
- Factory Inspection: We undergo 20 tests, including a pendulum tribometer and salt spray tester, to ensure 100% compliance with standards for pattern height, flatness, and corrosion resistance. International certifications such as EN 13845 and AS/NZS 1530.1 are included with the product.
- Warranty: We offer a 5-year warranty. Any cracking, rusting, or other issues not caused by human error will be replaced free of charge, and we will cover the installation costs.
6. Procurement Support: Making Cooperation More Worry-Free
- Transparent Pricing: Standard specifications (1.5-4mm) are priced between 3,100 and 3,500 dollars per ton. Bulk purchases of 5 tons or more receive a 5% discount, and long-term customers receive additional annual rebates.
- Fast Delivery: Our Hong Kong warehouse always has 20 tons in stock, with same-day orders delivered within 48 hours. Custom products are delivered within 15-20 days, with port pickup and door-to-door delivery available.
- Technical Support: We provide a free installation manual (including screw spacing and gap treatment specifications). We can dispatch technicians to provide on-site installation guidance and assist with issues like vibration damping and sealing.
We firmly believe that high-quality aluminium bus floor sheet is more than just a combination of materials; it is a long-term guarantee for safe bus operations. Whether you're a bus company, a modification shop, or a trader, you can find a solution that meets your needs here. We look forward to working with you to contribute to Hong Kong's public transportation with our high-quality products.
