Steel plate thickness specifications

Thick steel plates are by and large the same steel species as thin steel plates. In all aspects, in addition to the bridge steel plate, boiler steel plate, automobile manufacturing steel plate, pressure vessel steel plate and multi-layer high-pressure vessel steel plate and other varieties of purely thick plate, some varieties of steel plate such as automobile beam steel plate (2.5 ~ 10 mm thick), patterned steel plate (2.5 ~ 8 mm thick), stainless steel plate, heat-resistant steel plate and other varieties are crossed with the thin plate.

Another steel plate there is a material, not all steel plates are the same, the material is not the same, the steel plate used in different places, but also different. There are three types of steel plates: thick steel plates, thick steel plates, thick steel plates and thick steel plates.


There are three specifications, thick steel plates, thin steel plates and flat steel plates. The specifications are expressed in millimetres in line with “-” and width * thickness * length.

For example – 300*10*3000 means a steel plate with a width of 300mm, thickness of 10mm and length of 3000mm.

Thick steel plate: thickness greater than 4mm, width 600 to 3000mm, length 4 to 12m.

Thin steel plate: thickness less than 4mm, width 500~1500mm, length 0.5~4m.

Flat steel: thickness 4~60mm, width 12~200mm, length 3~9m.
