What are the commonly available metric plate thicknesses?
(OP)
We are designing a project outside the US. This is the first project that I've worked on where we are using metric shapes, plates, bolts, etc.
Where can I find a list of commonly available metric plate thicknesses? I searched online but did not find anything definitive. The steel will be fabricated in China.

In Australia, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 25, 28, 32, 36, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 70, 80....
Some are more readily available than others.
They can make anything in China, but sometimes not very well.

If it exists, you'll find it there. They have an enormous online (and paperback) catalog.
