Gauge is a unit that describes the thickness of metal independently of other measuring systems. We can easily know the thickness corresponding to 6 gauge aluminum sheet by querying the sheet metal gauge.
The thickness of 6 gauge aluminum is 4.1148mm.
So, its thickness, performance and application are very similar to 4mm aluminum sheet/plate.
4mm aluminum sheet
The thickness of 6 gauge aluminum sheet corresponds to 0.162 inches
The density of aluminum is about 2700kg/m3.
Volume of 6 gauge aluminium per unit area = length x width x height = 1mx1mx0.0041148m=0.004118 m3.
So, the weight of 6 gauge aluminum per unit area = volume x density = 11.12kg.
6 gauge aluminum sheet
Common sizes of 6 gauge aluminum sheet are 4’x8′, 4’x4′, 4’x10′, 5’x10′, 1000x2000mm.
According to the above calculation method of unit area, we can get the weight chart of each common specification in detail
| Size | 4’x8′ | 4’x4′ | 4’x10′ | 5’x10′ | 1000x2000mm |
| Weight(kg) | 33.05 | 16.5 | 41.2 | 51.6 | 22.24 |
| Remarks: The data in this table provides an approximate data and is not precise enough. In fact, the density of different alloys is different, for reference only. | |||||
The thickness of 6 gauge aluminum is a little more than 4mm, so it is very close to the characteristics of 4mm aluminum sheet
Different series of aluminum plates can be rolled to a thickness of about 4mm by rolling mills, such as 1060 aluminum plate, 1070 aluminum plate, 3003 aluminum plate, 5052 aluminum plate, 5754 aluminum plate, 6061 aluminum plate, etc., all of them can be processed to the above thickness.
Including F, O, H12, H14, H16, H18, H19, H22, H24, H26, H28, H32, H34, H36, H38, H111, H112, H114, etc.

In practice, shipbuilding has a high demand for 4mm aluminum sheets. Among them, the 4mm thick 5083-H116 and 5083-H111 aluminum sheets are typical marine grade aluminum sheets, which are very suitable for applications in extremely humid and harsh environments.
The general dimensions of 5083 grade 4mm aluminum sheets are 4 × 8 (ft), 4 × 10 (ft), 1220 × 2440 (mm), 1200 × 2400 (mm), 2000 × 6000 (mm), etc.
