Not sure but check for GooRoo's posts on the topic. His web site:

I knew at least one of the track junkies would be around. Thanks for the info, I have a sheet of titanium in my room and I think I have a pretty good idea for some plates but need a thickness as a starting point. I'll pm GooRoo and email the people that make the regular plates.

Thanks again

Not very thick. About 1-2 mm.
