Among many metal materials, aluminum diamond plate sheets are widely used in construction, transportation, machinery and other fields due to its unique anti-slip, beautiful appearance and good mechanical properties. When using patterned aluminum plate, the choice of thickness and size is crucial, which directly affects the use effect and cost of aluminum plate.
The thickness of aluminum diamond plates is usually between 0.8mm and 10mm. The thinner 0.8mm-2mm aluminum plate is often used in scenes with strict weight requirements, such as decorative panels in car interiors, electronic product housings, etc. It can not only reduce the overall weight, but also use the pattern of the aluminum plate to play a certain anti-slip role, while also showing a beautiful appearance.
3mm - 5mm aluminum plates have moderate strength and are more widely used. In the field of construction, they are often used for stair treads, corridor floors, etc., which can provide reliable anti-slip protection and withstand a certain amount of traffic and daily wear. In the manufacture of some small equipment, they can also play a good role in strength and processing performance.
Aluminum plates with a thickness of more than 5mm are generally used in places with extremely high strength requirements, such as platforms for large machinery and decks of ships. These places require aluminum plates to have sufficient strength and load-bearing capacity to cope with harsh working environments and large loads.
The common standard sizes of patterned aluminum plates on the market are 1000mm×2000mm, 1220mm×2440mm, etc. These standard-sized aluminum plates are easy to transport and store, and can also reduce material waste and reduce costs during processing. For some conventional projects, directly choosing standard-sized aluminum plates can improve work efficiency.
However, in actual applications, not all projects can be applied to standard sizes. When encountering special designs or site restrictions, custom-sized aluminum checker plates are required. Although customized sizes may increase certain costs, they can accurately meet project requirements and ensure the final use effect.
Consider the use scenario
First, we need to clarify the use scenario of the aluminum tread plate. If it is used for interior decoration, the strength requirement is relatively low. You can choose a thinner aluminum plate. If it is used for outdoor industrial facilities, it is necessary to fully consider the harsh environment and large loads it may face, choose aluminum plates with larger thickness and higher strength like 12mm aluminium plate, and customize the appropriate size according to the actual specifications of the facility.
Combined with the budget
Cost is also an important consideration. Generally speaking, the larger the thickness and the more special the size, the higher the price of the aluminum plate. When choosing, it is necessary to reasonably control the cost while meeting the use requirements. You can communicate with suppliers to understand the price differences of aluminum plates of different thicknesses and sizes, and find the most cost-effective solution.
