Ahol a méret is szerepel, ott még kézenfekvőbb a vastagság szó használata:
„Avoiding weld imperfections
The main problem when welding this type of stainless steel is poor HAZ toughness. Excessive grain coarsening can lead to cracking in highly restrained joints and thick section material. When welding thin section material, (less than 6mm) no special precautions are necessary.”

Hasonló példa:
„Készülék a hegesztés közbeni automatikus oxigénelvonásra
...
For thicker section welds the "super" version deoxidant is preferred.
Nagyobb lemezvastagság esetén a folyadékból a Super típus alkalmazható.”

vékonyabb szelvényű (szerkezeti anyagok)

Hasonló anyag alapján:
„The size of the electrode is generally dependent on the thickness of the section being welded, and the larger the section the larger the electrode required. In the case of light sheet the electrode size used is generally slightly larger than the work being welded. This means that if 1.5 mm sheet is being welded, 2.0 mm diameter electrode is the recommended size.
The following table gives the recommended maximum size of electrodes that may be used for various thicknesses of section.

Itt is a szelvény szót használják:
„27.10.9 Heavy sections; sheet piling, welded sections and railway
material, of steel
27.10.9 Nehéz szelvény; szádlemez, hegesztett szelvény, vasúti anyagok acélból „
