Default table saw splitter thickness

Hi. I am making a simple splitter for my Delta contractors saw. Can
any one tell me how thick it has to be? I was just going to screw in
a piece of scrap aluminum I had around that is a hair over 3/32 thick.
I use a standard size 1/8 inch blade. Is that thick enough to stop
kick back? The original delta blade guard comes with a much thinner
splitter, but of course it extends far further back. Any help would
be much appreciated. Safety first(and now that I have a wife, second
and third too)! Sanford
