Stainless Steel Sheet / Plate

Stainless steel plate is generally a general term for stainless steel plate and acid-resistant steel plate. Coming out at the beginning of this century, the development of stainless steel plate has laid an important material and technological foundation for the development of modern industry and scientific and technological progress. There are many kinds of stainless steel plates with different properties, and it has gradually formed several categories in the development process.

The surface of the stainless steel plate is smooth, has high plasticity, toughness and mechanical strength, and is resistant to acid, alkaline gas, solution and other media corrosion. It is an alloy steel that is not easy to rust, but it is not absolutely rust free.

Stainless steel is initially produced in slabs, which are then put through a conversion process using a Z mill, which converts the slab into coil prior to further rolling. These wide coils are typically made at around 1250mm (sometimes a little wider) and are known as ‘mill edge coils’. After the stainless steel roll is rolled flat, it becomes a stainless steel sheet(plate).

Stainless steel plate can be divided into coil plate, plain, steel strip.

The roll plate is opened by the opening machine, and the opening length can be determined according to the demand. Cold-rolled sheet, domestic cold rolling is generally below 3mm, 3mm both hot and cold rolling, but the thickness of imported cold-rolled sheet can reach 4mm or even 6mm. Hot rolling is usually more than 3mm, 3mm-12mm plate is called the medium plate, more than 12mm is called the thick plate, and the medium thick plate, the original plate, is generally a thick plate, the thickness is usually more than 16mm.
