Aluminum Sheet
As for the CHAL aluminum sheet, the thickness is from 0.2mm to 6mm. It is thinner than aluminum plates and thicker than aluminum foil. It comes in many forms, including diamond, expanded, mirror, and mill-finished aluminum sheet, perforated and painted aluminum sheet. Also, our aluminum sheet can be clad and bare. Surface treatment includes color coated and anodized. The shapes of aluminum sheets include coil rolled sheets, stripe sheets, square sheets, rectangular sheets, round circles/discs. The aluminum raw material is available from 1xxx series to 8xxx series.
With an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and natural corrosion resistance, aluminum sheet metal is popular for a broad range of applications. Aluminum sheets and plates are used in everything from aerospace and aircraft manufacturing to beverage packaging, cryogenic storage applications to siding, gutters, tooling & mold applications, and roofing for homes. CHAL offers a variety of alloys in a range of standard sizes and thicknesses, and we can provide custom cut-to-size aluminum sheets to meet your exact requirements.

Features of Aluminum Sheet
- Lightweight– It’s approximately 1/3 the weight of iron and copper
- Low Melting Point– It has a good casting property.
- Excellent Ductility– It’s easy to work into new shapes and can undergo specific treatments.
- Conductive– It has a higher thermal and electrical conductivity.
- Resistant to corrosion– This characteristic can be improved with special coatings.
- Recyclable– It can be indefinitely recycled without losing any of its fundamental properties.
Applications of Aluminum Sheet
Sheet, the most widely used form of aluminum, is found in all of the aluminum industry’s major markets.
- In packaging, it is used to manufacture cans and packages.
- In transportation, it is used to manufacture panels for automobile bodies and tractor-trailers.
- In daily life, it is used in home appliances and cookware.
- In building and construction, it is formed into products including siding, gutters, roofing, awnings and carports.
Aluminum sheet can be color-anodized to black, gold, red, blue and hundreds of other colors. It can be etched to a matte finish, polished to a sparkling brightness or textured to resemble wood and painted.
Processing of Aluminum Sheet
With so many potential uses, aluminum should be processed in a way that complements its future application. CHAL offers a variety of metal processing services including:

Aluminum sheet processing options vary by grade. CHAL has a team of experienced staff with decades of hands-on experience in the processing and handling of metals. We are happy to assist you in determining the best options that can help you save both time and money.
How Much Does a 4×8 Sheet of Aluminum Weigh?
What’s the weight of a 4×8 aluminium sheet? First of all, you need to know the calculation formula of the weight of the aluminum sheet: Weight = density × volume. The density of aluminum is 2.7g / cm³. Assuming that the thickness of the 4×8 aluminum sheet metal is 1/5 “, the volume is 921 cubic inches or 15092 cm³, multiplied by the density of 2.7 g / cm³, and the resulting weight is 41 kg or 90 lbs. Note that this is the weight of each piece if there are 1000 tablets, the total weight is 41 tons or 90388 pounds.
The Price of Aluminum Sheet
To know the specific aluminium sheet price, you need to sort out some issues first.
In theory, aluminum sheet price has nothing to do with the thickness, because we usually quote in metric tons. However, the smaller the thickness, the higher the price, but this is not absolute.
Generally speaking, 1xxx aluminum sheet is the cheapest, while 2xxx, 3xxx, 4xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, 7xxx, and 8xxx are more expensive in turn, because they are related to different processes and tempers.
Aluminum sheet price will be affected by 3 factors
- The price of aluminum ingots. The price of aluminum ingots is a direct factor affecting the price of aluminum sheet. The price of non-ferrous aluminum ingots in the Yangtze River is changing every day and is unpredictable. This directly affects the price of aluminum sheets.
- Alloy. The price of aluminum sheet of each alloy series is different, for example, the price of 1 series and 6 series alloys will be much different.
- Specifications. The aluminum sheet price of ordinary thickness specifications is not high, but the ultra-wide specifications are not necessarily. The wider the aluminium sheet, the higher the price, so if there are no special requirements, it is recommended to choose the regular width.
Besides, temper, surface treatment methods and delivery costs are also affecting the price of aluminium sheet. Therefore, if you want the aluminum sheet price, please send the sheet’s complete details to your supplier.
Share with you how to judge the quality of aluminum sheet
Aluminum sheet is a very important industrial raw material, so the quality requirements are stringent. When we want to buy aluminium sheet, we should first judge the quality and strength of aluminum sheet.
- The first is chemical composition. If a large amount of aluminum or scrap aluminum is mixed into the aluminum sheet, its cost will be greatly reduced, but the chemical composition is not qualified, also the quality will not be qualified.
- The second is processing technology. The inferior aluminum sheet greatly reduces the processing steps and the loss of chemical reagents. This can reduce costs, but the corrosion resistance is greatly reduced.
- We need to pay attention to the oxide film on the surface of the aluminum sheet when buying. For aluminium sheets with a thickness of less than 3mm, if the oxide film is thin and the thickness is insufficient, the aluminum surface is prone to rust and corrosion.
