What is aluminum sheet metal?
Aluminum alloy metal is passed through hot and cold rollers to make it thinner and longer in the direction of the roller. In this rolling process, the aluminium slab is either cold rolled or may be heat-treated to increase its strength and rapidly cooled to room temperature with further processing. They are aged naturally or artificially aged in a furnace. Finally, the plate is trimmed to the final size.
Aluminum sheet, the most widely used in various industrial aluminium applications like aerospace body construction, transportation for automotive body sheets, packaging for can bodies and ends, and in construction for building facades.
Why aluminum sheet and aluminum plate？
Aluminum sheet and aluminum plate are both widely used and respected due to the metal’s lightweight strength, along with high corrosion resistance.
People usually consider that aluminum sheet with a thickness below 6mm but above 0.2 mm. On the other hand, with a thickness above 6mm is called an aluminum plate, while thicknesses less than 0.2 mm are called aluminum foil.
