Just trying to get across that when I ordered "half hard", the supplier that I used sent me EN AW 1050A H14 without asking the grade - tried to get that across with my " " in the post - sorry for the confusion!

Boom Boom!
I'm skinning the entire floor of my Westfield 919 blade
is 2mm NS4 overkill?
2mm half hard (i.e. NS4) is pretty standard. Some swear by steel, a few go thicker than 2mm aluminium.
Not many go thinner on the aluminium and only if they're really weight concious.
Not the same stuff!
1050 is "half hard"
5251 is NS4
I remember helping Liam do some of his bodywork and NS4 is quite different to work compared to 1050 which is almost pure Al.
For a floor though if you are just jigsawing rather than bending I would think NS4 would be quite a good choice.
