In the fields of construction, industrial manufacturing and decoration, 4x8 aluminum sheets (i.e., 1.22 meters × 2.44 meters standard size) have become a common choice due to their flexibility and versatility.
The thickness span of 4x8 aluminum sheets is relatively large, and common specifications include:
Metric thickness: 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 16mm, etc.
Imperial thickness: such as 4x8 sheet of 1 8 inch aluminum, 3/16 inch, 1/4 inch etc.
Thin aluminum plates (1-3mm): commonly used in advertising printing, packaging or light structures.
Medium-thick aluminum plates (4-8mm): suitable for building curtain walls, vehicle manufacturing or mechanical parts.
Thick aluminum plates (10mm and above): mostly used in industrial equipment, shipbuilding or heavy structures.
Brushed aluminum plate
The surface is repeatedly scraped by sandpaper to form fine silk patterns, which has both matte texture and metallic luster. It is widely used in decorative scenes such as furniture and electronic product shells.
Anodized aluminum sheet
The surface is formed by electrolytic process. The oxide film (thickness 5-200 microns) is significantly improved. The corrosion resistance and wear resistance are suitable for outdoor curtain walls, door and window frames, etc.
Mirror aluminum plate
After rolling and polishing, the surface is as smooth as a mirror, with outstanding reflective effect. It is often used in lamps, high-end decorations or optical equipment.
PS plate
The back is pre-printed with a coating, usually 0.25-0.3mm thick, specially designed for advertising and logo production, suitable for high-precision graphic printing.
Auminum tread plate 4x8
The surface is pressed with patterns such as diamonds, orange peel, and five bars, which are both anti-slip and decorative, and are commonly seen on floors, car linings, or building exterior walls. The colorful aluminum tread plate is also very popular like black aluminum sheet 4x8.
Lightweight and high strength: 3mm thick aluminum plate is only about 8kg per square meter, with a tensile strength of 100-280N/mm², which is easy to transport and install.
Corrosion resistance: Aluminum plates after anodizing can resist acid rain and ultraviolet erosion, and are suitable for coastal or humid environments.
Easy processing: It can be bent, welded or sprayed, and supports customized design, such as curved curtain walls, special-shaped decorations, etc.
Choose thickness according to needs: Choose the appropriate thickness according to load-bearing, environmental and other requirements to avoid excessive waste or insufficient strength.
Pay attention to surface treatment: Aluminum plates are preferred for outdoor scenes, and brushed or mirror effects can be considered for decorative needs.
Cleaning precautions: Use neutral detergent and avoid high-temperature cleaning to prevent damage to the surface coating.
