According to the
aluminum plate thickness, it can be divided into thin
aluminum sheet, standard
aluminum sheet and thick
aluminum sheet. The thickness below 1mm belongs to thin plate, and the thickness between 1mm-8mm belongs to standard plate and that above 8mm is thick
aluminum sheet.This classification is mainly based on the processing craft. For example. The
aluminum plate within 8 mm can be processed by cold rolling equipment, which is of relatively low cost while that above 8 mm or more must be manufactured by hot rolling equipment.The
aluminum sheet thickness has close relationship with the price. The price of 1-8 mm
aluminum sheet is the most economic. The thinner plate has a relatively high price because of more processing steps.As for
aluminum plate exceeding 8mm, it must be produced by hot rolling after ingot processing, which will cause certain losses during the ingot casting process. At the same time, the price of hot rolling equipment is relatively high, so the price of super thick
aluminum plate will be also high.The flatness of
aluminum plates below 1 mm needs to be paid attention to. Nowadays, many small processing factories don’t have stretch-bending and straightening equipment. For products below one millimeter, the flatness cannot be guaranteed. So if you want to buy 1mm
aluminium sheet, finding a big
aluminum sheet manufacturer such as Haomei Aluminum will be better.There is no inevitable relationship between thickness and rolling process. Not all thin
aluminum sheets are cold-rolled, because hot-rolled
aluminum coils can also be further processed by cold-rolling equipment to become hot-rolled thin
aluminum sheets.However, it is certain that the
aluminum plate above eight millimeters is hot-rolled
aluminum plate, because cold-rolling equipment cannot produce
aluminum sheet with a thickness greater than that. The
aluminum plate thickness of Haomei Aluminum is 0.15-350 mm. Welcome to contact us by leaving message.
