what is an aluminum 1/8 sheet?
1 inch = 25.4 mm
1/8 inch = 3.175 mm
Therefore, the 1/8” aluminum sheet is an aluminum sheet with a thickness of 3.175 mm, and the aluminum sheet of this thickness is very easy to cut.
Common aluminum sheet thickness:
About 1mm: 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm
1mm-3mm: 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm
4mm-10mm: 4mm,5mm,6mm,8mm,10mm
1/8 inch aluminum sheet weighs one square meter
1×1×0.003175×2.7×1000=8.5725kg

1/8 inch thick aluminum sheet price
The aluminum materials used for the 1/8 inch thick aluminum sheet price board are all aluminum alloys, and it is impossible to have pure aluminum. However, due to the difference in alloy content, the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys are different. The aluminum alloys currently used for 1/8 inch thick aluminum sheets are roughly divided into five grades:
The first grade: is aluminum-magnesium alloy, which also contains part of manganese. The biggest advantage of this material is good oxidation resistance. At the same time, because of the content of manganese, it has a certain strength and rigidity. It is the price of a 1/8″ thick aluminum sheet. The most ideal material. The aluminum processing performance of Signi Aluminum Co., Ltd. is the most stable.
The second grade: is aluminum-manganese alloy, the strength, and stiffness of this material are slightly better than that of aluminum-magnesium alloy. However, the oxidation resistance is slightly lower than that of aluminum-magnesium alloys. If both sides are protected, it basically solves the disadvantage that its anti-oxidation ability is not as good as that of aluminum-magnesium alloy.

The third grade: is aluminum alloy, which has less manganese and magnesium content. Therefore, its strength and stiffness are significantly lower than those of aluminum-magnesium alloys and aluminum-manganese alloys. Because it is soft and easy to process, as long as it reaches a certain thickness, it can basically meet the basic flatness requirements of the price of a 1/8” thick aluminum sheet. However, its oxidation resistance is obviously inferior to that of aluminum-magnesium alloys and aluminum-manganese alloys. Moreover, it is easy to deform during processing, transportation, and installation.
The fourth grade: is ordinary aluminum alloy, the mechanical properties of this material are not stable.
The fifth grade: The raw material of this kind of sheet is that the aluminum processing factory melts the aluminum ingot into an aluminum sheet, and does not control the chemical composition at all. Due to the uncontrolled chemical composition, the properties of these materials are unstable, resulting in the severe uneven surface of the prodsuct, deformation of the prodsuct, and easy oxidation of the material.
From the above grades of raw materials, it is not difficult for us to analyze the quality assurance of each 1/8 inch thick aluminum sheet after forming. Ordinary consumers do not have a good understanding of the material of the original sheet when purchasing aluminum gussets, and the easiest way to feel the strength and hardness of the aluminum sheet is by hand.

Aluminum sheet sheet standard export packing
- The aluminum sheet is paperclip or laminated to ensure that the surface of the aluminum sheet is intact and free of scratches;
- Plastic film ( HDPE, PVC, PE or PET etc ) protection or hard kraft paper wrapping is used to prevent moisture and rain to ensure that the aluminum sheet is clean and free of dirt during transportation (each package has a moisture-proof desiccant to ensure the quality of our prodsucts in East China and South China, where there is more rain);
- Installed with wooden brackets and reinforced with steel straps to avoid collision during transportation and to ensure the geometry of the aluminum sheet remains unchanged;
- For export prodsucts, we use wooden boxes and pallets with fumigation mark for packaging;
- We can also pack according to other packaging requirements of customers;
