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.

Sheet metal guage tolerances.
Standard tolerances for aluminum usually choosing material thickness is one of the first steps a designer takes when starting a project.
Call for specific tolerance if needed.
7075 t651 aluminum has a tensile strength range of 74 78 ksi and conforms to ams qq a 250 12 and astm b209 mill thickness tolerance ranges from 0 to 014 0 130 depending on thickness.
However it is not recommended for sheet metal work because it tends to crack on the outside radii once it passes its yield and therefore requires a much larger radii to be able to bend properly.
0 125 to 0 374 0 0015 aluminum.
Offering good corrosion resistance and conductivity of heat and electricity most alloys also provide moderate formability and machinability.
Aluminum sheet and plate are lighter in weight than steel brass and copper and have high strength to weight ratios.

We work with nominal thicknesses so it s important to know the thickness tolerance on the material you chose in order to know if the final product will be suitable for your application.
Specified width in.
Below you will find the tolerances for plates an sheets according to alloy group.
During the rolling process the rollers bow slightly which results in the sheets being thinner on the edges.
6061 aluminum is also very easy to machine.
