1mm Aluminium Sheet Metal 1050 Grade – 2000 x 1000mm Panel

1mm Aluminium Sheet

Aluminium sheet metal is an ideal choice for projects where strength is a priority, as its high strength-to-weight ratio makes it less likely to deform under loading or vibration. Its non-magnetic properties also make it a good choice for electrical applications. Additionally, its low cost and wide availability makes aluminium sheet metal an economical material option. With these benefits, aluminium  is an ideal material for many industrial and commercial projects.

Sheet metal is an essential component for many industries, from automotive to aerospace. Most commonly aluminium is used to form the base of a sheet metal part; malleability and corrosion resistance make aluminium an ideal material for most types of sheet metal structures. Great care must be taken to ensure the aluminium is manipulated in such a way that its strength and integrity are preserved, allowing for components that are both reliable and durable.

Sheet metal fabrication often demands the highest level of precision from manufacturers, requiring adherence to tight tolerances that can only be achieved with mechanised processes. 

These aluminium sheets are offered here in small sizes to suit all requirements. We also offer metal sheet in smaller pre-cut sheets.

How Do I Cut Aluminium Sheet?

Aluminium sheet can be cut using a variety of methods including guillotine, jigsaw, shearing and water jet. For best results use a circular saw with a fine-tooth blade or abrasive cutting disk.

Can I Weld Aluminium Sheet?

Welding aluminium sheets can be a tricky process due to the fact that aluminium has a lower melting temperature than many other metals. To successfully weld aluminium, one needs to utilise specialty welding method such as Tungsten Inertial Gas (TIG) or Metal Inertial Gas (MIG). Not only does aluminium require specialised welding equipment, but also precautions such as applying flux paste and increasing amperage and pressure need to be taken into account. With the right tools, however, aluminium welding can become a manageable task.

Can I Use This For Construction?

While 1mm aluminium sheet metal is strong and durable, it may not be suitable for all construction applications. The use of sheet metal in construction depends on the specific application and the required properties of the material.

In some cases, 1mm aluminium sheet metal may be suitable for use in construction, such as for interior wall panels or decorative finishes. However, for more load-bearing or structural applications, thicker aluminium sheets or other materials may be required to provide the necessary strength and durability.

It’s important to consult with a structural engineer or construction expert to determine the appropriate material for your specific construction application. They can advise you on the appropriate material, thickness, and other specifications that are required for your project.

In addition, local building codes and regulations may dictate the types of materials that are allowed for use in construction. Be sure to check with your local building authority to ensure that your chosen materials meet the necessary requirements.
