2mm aluminium checker plate, also known as diamond plate or tread plate, is a lightweight and durable material with raised diamond or ribbed patterns on one side. Its slim profile (2mm ≈ 0.0787 inch) makes it ideal for applications requiring flexibility, corrosion resistance, and anti-slip properties.
The 2mm thickness refers to the base material thickness, excluding the pattern height, which usually adds about 1.5mm.
The 2mm aluminium checker plate achieves an excellent balance between strength and weight, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in construction, transportation, and manufacturing industries.
Features of 2mm Aluminium Checker Plate
- Durability: Aluminium inherently possesses corrosion and rust resistance, making the 2mm checker plate suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Its durability ensures a long service life, even in harsh environments.
- Lightweight: Although the aluminium is thicker, it is much lighter than steel, making it easy to handle and install without compromising structural integrity.
- Strength: The 2mm thickness provides additional strength and rigidity compared to thinner options, allowing it to support heavier loads and withstand impacts.
- Slip Resistance: The raised pattern enhances traction, making the 2mm aluminium checker plate an ideal choice for critical slip-resistant areas such as stair treads, ramps, and walkways.
2mm Aluminium Checker Plate Material Specifications
- Material Grades: Commonly supplied in grade 5754 (high strength, excellent weldability and corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments). Other grades such as 1050, 3003, 5052, and 6061 are also available.
- Thickness: 2mm (0.0787 inch) is a versatile choice for lightweight structural or decorative purposes. It provides good rigidity while maintaining the inherent lightweight nature of aluminium.
- Surface Finish: Mill finish (standard), polished, anodized, or powder-coated to enhance durability and allow color customization.
- Standard Sizes: 2500 mm x 1250 mm, 4 x 8 ft (1220 mm x 2440 mm).
2mm Aluminium Checker Plate Alloy Options
- 3003-H14: Bright surface, high formability, and moderate corrosion resistance. Ideal for decorative projects and light-duty applications.
- 5052-H32: Marine-grade alloy with excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor or high-humidity environments such as docks and ship flooring.
- 1060-H14: Pure aluminium (99.6% Al) with high ductility and low strength, used for non-structural decorative purposes.
2mm Aluminium Checker Plate Pattern Options
Patterns: Common patterns include five-bar (ribbed) and diamond (raised diamond), both offering anti-slip performance and aesthetic appeal. The back side is smooth, making installation easy.
2mm Aluminium Checker Plate Finish Options
Surface Finishes: Mill finish (standard), polished, anodized, or powder-coated to enhance durability and allow color customization.
