Weight depends on thickness and alloy; for example, a 1/8" sheet weighs approx. 1.90 lbs/sq.ft. Our team can provide precise weight calculations for your custom order to help with structural planning and transport.
For industrial aluminum checker plate flooring, we recommend the 6061-T6 alloy. It provides superior load-bearing capacity and structural integrity compared to 3003, ensuring safety for ramps and warehouses.
