Aluminum Coil Stock Thickness

While purchasing ceiling boards many people have no idea about aluminum coil stock thickness. A large number of people, including me, used to believe that the thicker the stock is, the better is the quality. In fact, it is not the case. If some factories declare it is 0.8mm, buyers are advised to check the quality, because not a few 0.8mm aluminum ceiling boards in market are disqualified products from small factories. These boards are usually made of thin aluminum coil yet thick coverage layer. Some really bad-qualified boards have the thickness of 0.43mm and the coverage film of 0.3mm. Such ceiling boards are very deceptive, especially when customers learn little about judging methods.

Then what’s the perfect aluminum coil stock thickness? In consideration of installation requirement and under the condition of applying quality stocks, experts suggest a thickness between 0.6mm to 1.0mm. Aluminum ceiling boards of this thickness are of the best cost performance and enough loading strength. Thicker boards proves to be a waste of resource and money. Quality aluminum ceiling boards should be of a certain degree of strength as well as tensile property. There will not be deformation after slight bending or long term service. If knocked with fingers, excellent aluminum boards give off clear and ringing noise while bad ones give off hollow and depressing noise.

These days ceiling aluminium coil stock is winning more and more popularity in ceiling area. Compared to traditional ceiling materials, it is more attractive with graceful colors, three-dimensional sense, satisfying decorative effect and good matching effect with other interior decorative materials like face bricks and marbles. In addition, it boasts exceptionally long service life owing to excellent water-proof, fire-proof and rust-proof performance. Haomei offers aluminium coil stock rolls of various types.
