Plates/Sheets Spec Table

7 types of spec data

Sheet and plate metal includes steel plate, stainless steel sheet, aluminum plate, copper plate, and more. Hot-rolled plate (SS400), cold-rolled sheet (SPCC), and stainless plate (SUS304/SUS316) differ in thickness standards and mechanical properties. Plate thickness, surface finish, and minimum bend radius must all be considered to achieve the desired shape after sheet metal fabrication.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between hot-rolled and cold-rolled steel plate?

Hot-rolled (HR) plate is rolled at high temperature, suited for thick plates (1.2–25mm) with mill scale on the surface. Cold-rolled (CR) has a smooth surface and precise thickness (0.3–3.2mm).

How do I choose between SUS304 and SUS316 stainless plate?

SUS304 suffices for general corrosion environments. SUS316 with added molybdenum suits seawater, chlorine, strong acid, and food/pharmaceutical equipment — about 20–30% more expensive.

What is checkered plate (tread plate) used for?

Raised surface patterns prevent slipping. Used for factory floors, stairs, vehicle cargo beds, and covers. Thickness refers to the base plate, excluding the pattern height.
