13 Gauge Aluminum Sheet Weight
Taking the 13 gauge 4’x8′ aluminum as an example, estimate the weight of the 13 gauge aluminum thickness:
Weight = Density x Volume.
Volume = length x width x thickness.

Applications
- Roofing and Exterior Sheeting: 13ga aluminum sheets can be used in roofing and exterior siding as cladding on residential and commercial buildings.
- Billboards and Signs: The flat surface and malleability of aluminum sheets make them useful for indoor and outdoor billboards, street signs, signs, and more.
- Freezers and Refrigeration Equipment: 1.829mm thick aluminum sheeting can be used to make the inner and outer wall panels of freezers to keep the temperature of refrigeration equipment stable.
- Vehicle Interior and Exterior Parts: It can be used to make body interior panels, door panels, roof covers and other components.
- Electronic Product Casing: This aluminum plate can be used to make electronic product casings such as computers, mobile phones, and TVs to provide protection and heat dissipation.
Common Aluminum Sheet Thickness in Gauge
13 Gauge Steel vs Cast Aluminum
13 gauge steel is approximately 2.3mm thick. Cast aluminum, on the other hand, is aluminum that is melted and poured into a mold to form a specific shape. Cast aluminum is commonly used in automotive parts, cookware, and decorative applications.
Steel is stronger than aluminum, and cast aluminum is lighter and more malleable than steel. Aluminum has better corrosion resistance than steel, which is more susceptible to rust and corrosion unless coated or treated. Cast aluminum is suitable for applications where weight reduction is important, such as in the automotive and aerospace industries.
Generally speaking, steel is cheaper than aluminum. 13-gauge steel is commonly used in structural applications where strength and stiffness are critical, such as building frames, automotive components and machinery. Cast aluminum is commonly used in automotive parts such as engine components, wheels and trim.
What is Difference Between 13 Gauge and 18 Gauge Aluminum
The larger the gauge value, the smaller the thickness. Therefore, the thickness of 13 gauge aluminum is larger than that of 18ga aluminum sheet.
