What is 3 8 Aluminum ?
3/8 aluminum plate is an aluminum plate with a thickness of 3/8 inches (0.375 inches). 3/8 aluminum plate is a common expression for the thickness of aluminum plates. When converted into millimeters, it is 9.525mm. 3 8 aluminum plate is very common and has a wide range of uses. It can be used in industrial fields, automobile manufacturing, aerospace, architectural decoration, shipbuilding, etc.

4×8 3 8 Aluminum Sheet
A 3/8 aluminum plate with dimensions 4×8 means an aluminum plate that is 4 feet wide, 8 feet long, and 3/8 inches thick. The 4 in “4×8” represents the width of the board, which can be expressed as 4inch or 4′, and the 8 represents the length of the board, which can be expressed as 8inch or 8′.
3 8 Aluminum Sheet Weight Calculation
Let’s take 48×96 3/8 aluminum plate as an example, where “48” means 48 inches (4 feet) and “96” means 96 inches (8 feet). That is, the weight calculation of a 3/8 aluminum plate with plate dimensions of 4’ x 8’.
Aluminum plate weight calculation formula: weight = length x width x thickness x density.

How Tight Can You Bend 3 8 Aluminum Plate
The bending ability of 3/8 aluminum plate mainly depends on the type and grade of aluminum alloy used. For example, 3003 or 6061 is easier to bend than other alloys; the O state is weaker than the T6 state, but has good ductility and will be easier to bend. In addition, the bendability of the 3 8 aluminum plate is also related to the equipment you use. The bending machine or roll bending will affect its bending radius.
How to Cut 3 8 Aluminum
- Angle Grinder: Use a cutting wheel or grinding disc designed specifically for aluminum to make straight or curved cuts.
- Metal Scissors: Electric or pneumatic metal scissors can also be used to cut aluminum. Ability to make clean, straight cuts, especially straight lines or gentle curves.
- Punching and Shearing Machines: Punching and shearing machines are tools specifically designed for cutting sheet metal, including aluminum. It uses a punch and die mechanism to produce clean, precise cuts.
- Metal Circular Saw: Use a circular saw with a carbide blade or an aluminum cutting blade. Make sure the blade is oriented correctly and just cut along the line.
