Aluminium plate is flat-rolled aluminium above roughly 6 mm in thickness. Where sheet is chosen for forming and panelling, plate is chosen for load, wear and machining it holds tolerance, resists deflection and can be milled, drilled and tapped like a solid block while weighing about a third of the equivalent steel.
Kumar Aluminium supplies plate to heavy engineering workshops, tooling and mould makers, marine yards, defence suppliers and structural fabricators across Mumbai and India. Our range covers utility grades from Hindalco, Jindal and Balco alongside an imported range that brings the high-strength 5000, 6000, 7000 and 2000 series into local stock.
Plate grade selection is usually driven by one of three things: machinability, weldability or saltwater resistance. The grades below cover all three requirements.
Domestic mills cover the utility grades; the high-strength structural and aerospace grades come from our imported range. If a drawing names a specific source, tell us at enquiry stage so we can confirm availability before quoting.

| BAND | TYPICAL APPLICATION |
|---|---|
| 6 – 12 mm | Light structural work, gussets, brackets, wear plates |
| 15 – 30 mm | Machine base plates, jigs and fixtures, marine hull plate |
| 32 – 60 mm | Tooling plate, mould bases, heavy structural connections |
| 65 – 120 mm | Large mould blocks, press tooling, heavy machined parts |
| 125 – 200 mm | Deep mould cavities, forging dies, special machined blocks |
Plate rarely leaves the yard in its full size. These are the processing services included with a plate order.
These are the sectors we supply plate to most often from our Mumbai stockyard.
Three decisions cover most plate specifications. If you are unsure, describe the part and its service conditions and we will suggest a grade.
Machined parts should be 6061-T651, 6082-T651 or 7075-T651 — the stress-relieved tempers stay flat. Welded structures are better served by 5083-H111 or 5754-H111, which retain strength across the weld far better than heat-treated 6000-series grades.
For seawater and coastal exposure choose 5083, 5086 or 5754. For general industrial use 6061 and 6082 are ample. Avoid 2014, 2024 and 7075 in unprotected outdoor service — their copper and zinc content reduces corrosion resistance and they need coating or anodising.
For light brackets and non-critical parts the utility grades from Hindalco or Jindal are cost-effective. For genuine structural load go to 6082-T651. Where strength is the deciding factor and cost is secondary, 7075-T651 is the strongest plate we stock.
