Hi , can anyone advise me on the following aluminium floor choice.local place offering some 3 mm thick 1050A H14 which is generally considered soft aluminium .not like book suggestion of half hard would it be suitable. Cheers Daveyb.

I have just got some today for my floor, I got a 8x4 2mm 5251 for £70

[DaveyB]

Do you think the grade 1050A h14 will be suitable.
Thanks
Daveyb

I am not sure, maybe any of fabricators on here may have some more information.
A quick google search shows that the 1050 is about 50% of the strength so I would imagine that a thicker piece would be required.

For my floor I used.

2500 mm x 1250 mm x 1.5 mm - 5251 H22 - Standard mill finish £41.80

from aluminium warehouse and its plenty strong enough. I used H14 for all other parts, tunnel covers etc.

Cheers
