20 Tons Aluminum Checker Plate Order for Canadian Truck, Trailer & Refrigerated Vehicle Client
We recently completed a 20-ton aluminum checker plate order for a Canadian client serving the commercial vehicle industry. The order covered two specifications: 1060 alloy aluminum checker plate in 1220 x 2440 x 0.8mm and 3003 alloy aluminum checker plate in 1200 x 2440 x 1.6mm. Both materials were supplied with a raised diamond tread pattern for superior slip resistance and long service life.
Customer Background
The client is a Canada-based manufacturer and distributor of truck bodies, trailers and refrigerated vehicles. They required durable, lightweight and corrosion-resistant flooring and wall panels for their production lines, with strict requirements on flatness, pattern consistency and surface quality. Their vehicles operate in demanding conditions, including long-haul transport, frequent loading cycles and harsh winter road-salt environments. As a trusted long-term partner, the client has been placing orders every quarter and is highly satisfied with our consistent product quality and on-time delivery.
Order Details
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Aluminum Checker Plate (1060 Alloy) | 1220 x 2440 x 0.8 mm |
| Aluminum Checker Plate (3003 Alloy) | 1200 x 2440 x 1.6 mm |
| Total Quantity | 20 Tons |
| Surface Pattern | Diamond / Tread (5-bar pattern) |
Why This Material
- 1060 Alloy (0.8mm): high-purity aluminum offers excellent formability, light weight and good corrosion resistance, ideal for interior wall panels and light-duty flooring.
- 3003 Alloy (1.6mm): Al-Mn alloy provides higher strength and better load-bearing capacity, perfect for heavy-duty trailer and truck flooring.
- Diamond Tread Pattern: the raised pattern enhances anti-slip performance and drainage, which is critical for cargo safety and worker protection.
- Corrosion Resistance: aluminum naturally resists rust and moisture, extending the service life of vehicles in harsh Canadian winters and road-salt conditions.
Applications
The aluminum checker plates were applied to the following vehicle types:
- Trailers: heavy-duty 3003 alloy flooring that withstands continuous loading and unloading.
- Trucks: durable anti-slip floors and side panels for commercial trucks.
- Refrigerated Trucks: lightweight 1060 alloy panels that reduce vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency while maintaining insulation integrity.
Production & Quality Control
Each batch of aluminum checker plate was produced from certified ingots and rolled to tight dimensional tolerance. The raised tread pattern was embossed with uniform height and spacing to guarantee consistent anti-slip performance across every sheet. Before shipment, our QC team inspected flatness, thickness, pattern depth and surface finish, and full mill test certificates were issued together with the goods.
Project Results
- 20 tons delivered on schedule with full material certificates.
- Flatness and pattern consistency passed the client's incoming inspection.
- Materials comply with international standards for aluminum checker plate.
- Client confirmed satisfaction and expressed repeat order intention.
- The client now places repeat orders every quarter and is highly satisfied with our product quality and service.
Packing & Shipping
The 20 tons of checker plates were packed on export-standard wooden pallets with moisture-proof film and edge protectors, then shipped by sea to the client's destination port in Canada. Clear shipping marks and complete documents ensured smooth customs clearance.
