Aluminum plate and aluminum sheets are essentially the same; the only proper difference is their respective thicknesses. One of the main differences between aluminum sheet and sheet metal is that sheet metal is less than 0.249 inches thick, while sheet metal is 0.250 inches thick and above. This distinction allows aluminum sheet metal to be used for light-duty applications, while aluminum sheet is reserved for heavy-duty applications that require thicker cuts.
Aluminium sheet is any sheet of aluminium sheet that is thicker than aluminium foil but thinner than 6mm.
Aluminum sheets come in many forms, including diamond sheets, expanded, perforated, and painted aluminum sheets. Mainly used for light duty applications. Price is often one of the more important factors when purchasing aluminum sheets. There is no fixed standard for the price of aluminum sheets. For example, you need to know what alloy it is, whether it is 5000 series or 6000 series, 1mm aluminum plate or 2mm aluminum plate. As long as you know the specific needs, you can also know the price range. First, let's list the factors that affect the price of aluminum sheets and aluminum sheet prices.
Pre-painted aluminium sheet finishes, also known as painted aluminium sheet or painted aluminium sheet finishes, are extremely durable both outdoors and indoors thanks to our high quality coating system. The unique design of Wieland-Wrisco painted aluminum sheet finishes is that they provide a hard, wear-resistant coating while providing flexibility for a wide range of forming and fabrication. You won't find a more versatile but stronger brand of painted aluminum sheet than Wieland-Wrisco! We are the industry distributor of painted aluminum in the United States and beyond.
The anodized aluminum sheet finish offers an exciting breakthrough with two-step continuous coil anodizing. State-of-the-art processes for the manufacture of anodized aluminium allow perfectly coloured sheets. Wieland-Wrisco Anodized Aluminum Sheet Finishes and Colored Aluminum Sheet Metals are far superior to any other brand for their uniformity, durability, and ability to be used externally. Wear resistance adds to improved brake forming characteristics. The bright anodized finish uses a brightening treatment to maximize the reflective properties of the sheet. Highly recommended for outdoor use, fade resistant applications are very versatile and offer unique design opportunities, which is obvious why Wieland-Wrisco Aluminum Sheets are in the industry.
Below are some typical applications within these specification ranges - utility panels, used for all general sheet metal works such as flashing, plumbing, lined walls, etc.
1100-0 is mainly used for spinning and deep drawing operations such as utensils, decorations, etc.
1100-H14 and 3003-H14 are specification alloys for general forming operations.
5005-H14 has similar physical properties to 3003-H14 with excellent corrosion resistance and a uniform smooth surface finish suitable for anodizing. The alloy is suitable for curtain walls, trim strips, control panel boxes and signage, among others.
5052-H32 and H34 are high-strength alloys with good forming qualities, especially for marine applications.
5083-H321 and H323 are alloys in different states that produce high weld joint efficiency. It is used for tank work, heavy transport, etc., where its welding properties can be used to its advantage
5454-H32 is a sister alloy of 5083 and has a lower stress corrosion rating when operating in the 150°F to 300°F range. Typical uses are truck dump bodies, tankers, exhaust pipes, chemical handling tanks on ships, etc.
6061-T6 is an excellent general purpose alloy with high strength and good corrosion resistance. It is used in all structural applications such as minecarts, logging chutes and shipbuilding.
Painted Aluminum: 1100, 3003, 3105, 5005, and 5052 are just some of the common alloys found in painted products. Painted aluminum offers a wide range of mechanical properties, with finishes ranging from high durability exterior coatings, specialty epoxies, polyesters, textured polyesters, fluorocarbons and metals as well as refinish primers. Standard colors can be selected, or custom color matching can be done according to specifications. Most coatings can be used on one and both sides.
