BENEFITS OF SHEET METAL:
Sheet metal is metal formed by an industrial process into thin, flat pieces. Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking, and it can be cut and bent into a variety of shapes. Countless everyday objects are fabricated from sheet metal. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate steel or "structural steel".
Sheet metal is available in flat pieces or coiled strips. The coils are formed by running a continuous sheet of metal through a roll slitter.
There are many different metals that can be made into sheet metal, such as aluminium, brass, copper, steel, tin, nickel, and titanium. For decorative uses, some important sheet metals include silver, gold, and platinum.
