Aluminium plate thickness and price

  •   Aluminium plate thickness ranges from 0.15mm to 350mm. It’s further divided into several categories: 0.15mm-2.0mm, 2.0mm-6.0mm, 6.0mm-25mm, 25mm-200mm and 200mm above. The most frequently used plates are below 25mm, known as aluminum plates of regular thickness. When we purchase aluminium alloy products, we tend to send inquiries containing thickness, this is because sometimes the price of an aluminium sheet plate is closely related with its thickness.

      Generally speaking, the thicker an aluminium plate is, the higher its price. For example, a 16mm aluminium plate is more expensive than a 2mm plate. This is because the thickness of aluminium plates has something to do with their alloys. Thick aluminium plates are more frequently used in weight carrying parts of ships, boats, planes and vehicles, which require excellent mechanical properties and long service life of the plates. Cheap aluminium grades usually show poor performances in either hardness or corrosion resistance, thus they are seldom made into weight carrying parts mentioned above.
      In addition to aluminium plate thickness, the size of a plate influences its price, too. The idea that larger plates cost higher is misleading. Regular sizes for alu sheets are 1250*2500, 1500*2000, 1250*3000, 1500*3000 and 1500*4000 etc. Many of these are in stock. The production of larger plates entail less cutting process than that of smaller sized ones. For example, if you need a 1250*2500 sheet, only several cut steps are enough, yet with 100*156 ones, you need much more steps to finish the cutting. What’s more, aluminium sheet metal pieces of irregular sizes cost more as well, as there is no such sheets in stock in the market and the production of them entails extra technology and process. This reflects the relationship between demand and supply of the economic market. Less supply of irregular aluminium sheets leads to high price.
