16 Mil Copper Sheet
26 gauge (.016" thick)
6 inches wide by 20 feet long
1 Rolled Sheet
The 16 mil copper sheets are approximately 1.5 times thicker than the 10
mil . It would take approximately 62.5 sheets of 16 mil stacked on top
of each other to make an inch. Also called 26 gauge, the 16 mil copper
weighs approximately 12 ounces per square foot. It is significantly more
rigid and less pliable that the thinner material, but will also hold
weight and can be bent/ formed into shape by hand or with tools. It is a
very durable sheet of copper. It can be cut with tin snips, shears or a
utility knife with a heavy duty blade. The 16 mil copper is often used
for sculptures, jewelry-making and other arts and crafts projects. Our
customers have used the 16 mil for backsplashes, bar tops, countertops,
and range hoods as well as roofing projects, cupolas and other outdoor
structural projects where the durability of the material outweighs the
need for more pliability.
