What is Gauge ?
Sheet metal gauge is the standard unit of measurement for sheet metal thickness. The smaller the gauge number, the thicker the metal plate. For example, 8 gauge aluminum metal sheet is thicker than 10 gauge aluminum sheet metal.
How Thick is 8 Gauge Aluminum ?
8 ga aluminum thickness in mm is 3.264 mm.
8 gauge aluminum sheet in inches is 0.1285 inch.
8 Gauge Aluminum Sheet Weight
Taking the 4×8 8 gauge aluminum sheet as an example, estimate the weight of the 8 gauge aluminum thickness:
Weight = Density x Volume.
Volume = length x width x thickness.
