Aluminium Plate Temper Codes
| Code | Description |
| H111 | Strain hardened less than the amount required for a controlled H11 temper. |
| H112 | No special control over amount of strain hardening. Some minimum strength limits set. |
| H321 | Strain hardened less than amount required for a controlled H32 temper. |
| H116 | Acceptable resistance to stress, cracking and exfoliation attack. Strain hardened less than amount required for a controlled H32 temper. |
| H321/H116 | Plate can be supplied with a dual temper from select mills. |
| H32 | Strain hardened by rolling and then stabilising heat treatment to ¼ hard. |
Plate Finishes
Bright: Principally used by the transport trucking industry this material is sourced from selected mills. Meta market and stock this quality of plate in alloy 5083 & temper H32.
Mill: This refers to plate supplied ex-mill with a commercial finish. This material is typically used in the marine industry, general engineering and transport industry where bright plate is not critical.
Linish: This is a customer negotiated linish that can be processed at an Meta Steels Service Centre.
Aluminium Bend Radius
Displays the recommended minimum inside bending radii for 90-degree cold forming of sheet and plate. It covers most common alloys of aluminium and their temper range from thickness 0.4 mm to 12.0 mm.
