The thickness of aluminum plates can vary widely, ranging from 0.25 inches to 6 inches or more, depending on the alloy and intended use. Factors such as alloy type, manufacturing process, and industry standards all play a role in determining the appropriate thickness for a given application.
The chart below can be used to determine the equivalent sheet thickness, in inches or millimeters, for a gauge number from the selected gauge size standard. The weight per unit area of the sheet can also be seen in pounds per square foot and kilograms per square meter.

Standard Steel: 16 Gauge = 1.519 mm. Galvanized Steel: 16 Gauge = 1.613 mm. Stainless Steel: 16 Gauge = 1.588 mm. Aluminum, Brass, Copper: 16 Gauge = 1.29 mm. When working with sheet metal, the term “gauge” is often used. Gauge are used to specify the thickness of a metal sheet.
A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters. For example, 18 gauge steel, according to a gauge conversion chart, is 0.0478 inch or 1.214 millimeter.
Gauge conversion chart can convert aluminum plate between gauge and thicknesses (inches and mm). Convenient weight calculation and purchase.
Gauges indicate the material thickness of specific sheets. As gauge numbers increase, material thickness decreases.
A sheet metal gauge chart uses the thickness and weight per area of different metals to determine standardised thicknesses or ‘gauges’. The higher the gauge, the thinner the sheet. Selecting the correct thickness is a critical part of the sheet metal fabrication design process .
The most common aluminium sheet gauges range from 22-gauge to 10-gauge, with corresponding thicknesses ranging from approximately 0.0253 inches to 0.1019 inches. Different gauges are suitable for different applications, such as roofing, building facades, and automotive parts.
