Hi all

a question on the standard size of sheet metal,

is that metrix standard size is 1200mm X 2400mm or 1220mm X 2400 mm ?

i have seen some of then in 1200x2400 and other come in 1220x2440

Thanks in advance
 
The size you purchase is 1200x2400. However, if you need to square it for your needs, sometimes they give you some allowance (unsolicited). Also, if you buy 4 x 8 ft sheets, that is 1219.2x2438.4 mm, which is approximated on your purchase document as 1220x2440 mm.
cheers,
