Sheet Metal Purchasing
Sheet Metal is formed from a large coil, cut and flattened by large machines Calvin Steel stocks thicknesses ranging from 20gauge .036″(thinnest) to 11gauge .120″ (thickest). Cold Rolled is a popular choice for racecar body work, and art work. Hot rolled pickled and oiled is a great choice for any project that requires a nice finish. HRP&O is just Hot Rolled steel that goes through two extra steps to remove the “mill scale”. First it is soaked in a bath of hydrogen peroxide then oiled to prevent rust which provides a beautiful clean sheet or plate of steel.

In 1893, Congress passed an Act establishing a standard gauge for sheets and plates to secure uniformity on sheets and plates. The basis of each gauge number is the weight per foot in ounces, based on a 12″x12″x1″ chunk of steel that should weigh 640 ounces. Each gauge number represents a certain number of ounces in weight and a corresponding multiple of 640ths of an inch in approximate thickness based on the weight of WROUGHT IRON which is 2% lighter than modern steel.
