Sheet metal. A term used rather loosely to indicate flat metal products that are thinner than "plates" but thicker than "strip" metal. Sheets are wider than strips, but whereas the latter are continuously rolled in one direction, sheets may have been crossed rolled or pack rolled. There is no universally accepted terminology that rigidly defines sheet or strip or foil. 3, record 1, English, - steel%20sheet
