Hi, this is a quick question for anyone who currently has an aluminum platform. I can't find the thickness of the various platforms, only their width and length. I have never owned or seen one so wanted to ask if a few people could let me know the main platform thickness of the various common platforms.
If someone has already given the measurement of a specific one, multiple answers are not necessary.
Thanks in advance for your time!
 
Pretty sure latitudes are 5/8, I can verify after work if you'd like.

XOP edge is THICK.

I have a mission I can check too
 
It depends on the design. You won't find a standard thickness. The cruzr seeker is cast so the thickness varies. Are you planning on designing/building one?
 
For machined stuff:

LWCG - all the platform and stands except the 2.0 are cut from 5/8” plate. The 2.0 is 3/4”

Beast 5/8”

Latitude 5/8”

Elevated treestands 1/2”


For cast I have no idea..

do you mean thickness of just the metal or thickness of the whole thing once folded shut (so it's bulk on the pack)?

Yes, but with a darker, lighter, and stronger material!
