Perforated aluminum sheet FAQs
What affects the perforated aluminium sheet price?
The perforated aluminium sheet price depends on several factors including alloy type, sheet thickness, hole pattern, open area percentage, sheet size, and surface treatment. Custom specifications and small order quantities may also impact the final cost. For an accurate quote, please contact Chalco with your detailed requirements. Quick Quote
What are the common hole sizes and patterns available?
Common hole diameters include 1/8 inch (3.18 mm), 3/16 inch (4.76 mm), and 1/4 inch (6.35 mm). Patterns can be round, square, hexagonal, or custom decorative shapes, with straight or staggered arrangements.
In "1/8 perforated aluminum sheet" and "1/4 perforated aluminum sheet", what do 1/8 and 1/4 refer to?
In these terms, 1/8 and 1/4 refer to the diameter of the holes in the aluminum sheet, measured in inches. So a 1/8 perforated aluminum sheet has 1/8-inch (≈3.18 mm) holes, while a 1/4 perforated aluminum sheet has 1/4-inch (≈6.35 mm) holes. This measurement is key to determining the sheet’s airflow, appearance, and suitability for different applications.
How to choose reliable perforated aluminium sheet suppliers?
When selecting perforated aluminium sheet suppliers, consider factors such as material quality, range of available specifications, customization capability, surface treatments, certifications (like ISO, RoHS), and delivery time. A good supplier should offer both standard and custom perforated sheets with consistent hole patterns, precise dimensions, and competitive pricing.
What does the percentage of open area mean?
The open area refers to the portion of the sheet surface occupied by holes, typically expressed as a percentage. A higher open area improves airflow and reduces weight but may lower structural strength.
What surface finishes are available?
We provide mill finish, anodized, powder coated, PVDF coated, brushed, and custom painted finishes to match architectural and functional needs.
How to choose the right perforated aluminium sheet for my project?
Consider factors like hole size, pitch, open area, sheet thickness, material alloy, and surface finish. Contact our sales team for tailored recommendations.
Can perforated aluminum sheets be machined?
Yes, perforated aluminum sheets can be machined by cutting, bending, welding, drilling, and CNC processing. Proper tools are recommended to avoid deformation, and Chalco offers custom fabrication based on customer drawings.
How are perforated aluminum sheets packaged?
