Metric Sheet Metal Thickness Tolerance

Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking and it can be cut and bent into a variety of shapes countless everyday objects are fabricated from sheet metal.

Metric sheet metal thickness tolerance.

Cold rolled sheet dc01 en 10131 table 1 thickness tolerance 6mm to 8mm 05mm 8mm to 1mm 06mm 1mm to 1 2mm 07mm 1 2mm to 1 6mm 09mm. Over including 1000mm 1000mm 1500mm. Thicknesses can vary significantly. Extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf and pieces thicker than 6 mm 0 25 in are considered.

Sheet metal guage tolerances. Thickness tolerance specified width. 4mm 28mm 28mm 4mm. For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter.

Sheet metal is metal formed by an industrial process into thin flat pieces. 3mm 11mm 14mm 3mm. Thickness tolerance specified width. Equal to less than 1000 1000 thru 1300 1300 thru 2100.

Cold rolled sheet electro galvanized dc01 electro galvanized en 10131 table 1 thickness tolerance 6mm to 8mm 05mm 8mm to 1mm 06mm 1mm to 1 2mm. During the rolling process the rollers bow slightly which results in the sheets being thinner on the edges. The tolerances in the table and attachments reflect current manufacturing practices and commercial standards and are not representative of the manufacturer s standard gauge which has no inherent tolerances. 304 316 409 420 430 cold rolled stainless sheet.

The sheet metal does however have a tolerance on the rolling thickness which needs to be taken into account when designing a tight fitting assembly especially as the sheet metal material gets thicker. Thickness tolerance specified width. A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters.
