Stainless Steel Plates

Stainless Steel Plates

Description

Stainless Steel Plates are widely used in industrial equipment, pressure vessels, structural components and piping systems where corrosion resistance and mechanical strength are required. Stainless Steel Plates are manufactured in various grades and thicknesses to meet the requirements of oil & gas, petrochemical, offshore, power generation and heavy industrial projects.

Stainless Steel Plates provide good corrosion resistance, weldability and mechanical properties, making Stainless Steel Plates suitable for fabrication, pressure vessels, storage tanks and heat exchangers. In many EPC projects, Stainless Steel Plates are supplied together with stainless steel pipes, flanges and fittings as part of integrated material supply packages.

Specifications / Standards

Manufactured according to international standards and project specifications. Chemical composition, mechanical properties, heat treatment and inspection requirements are controlled according to applicable standards.

Common standards include:

• ASTM A240
• ASTM A480
• EN 10088
• EN 10204
• ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code
• NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156

Stainless Steel Plates are typically supplied with EN 10204 3.1 certification or 3.2 certification with third-party inspection when required for offshore and oil & gas projects. Stainless Steel Plates may also be supplied together with butt weld pipe fittings and piping materials for fabrication and pressure vessel manufacturing.

Material Grades

Available in a wide range of stainless steel, duplex stainless steel and nickel alloy grades depending on corrosion conditions and project specifications.

Common stainless steel grades include:

• ASTM 304 / 304L
• ASTM 316 / 316L
• ASTM 321
• ASTM 347

Nickel alloy plate materials such as Hastelloy C276 and Inconel alloys may also be supplied for highly corrosive environments.

Material selection for Stainless Steel Plates depends on corrosion environment, temperature, pressure and fabrication requirements.

Size Range

Can be supplied in a wide range of thicknesses, widths and lengths depending on mill production capability and project requirements.

Typical size range includes:

• Thickness: 3 mm to 120 mm
• Width: up to 3000 mm
• Length: up to 12000 mm
• Plates, sheets and cut-to-size plates available

Heavy thickness Stainless Steel Plates are often used for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, structural components and industrial equipment fabrication.

Manufacturing Process

Stainless Steel Plates are produced by hot rolling processes followed by heat treatment and surface finishing. The manufacturing process is controlled to ensure mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and plate flatness.

Typical manufacturing process includes:

• Steel making
• Continuous casting
• Hot rolling
• Heat treatment
• Plate leveling
• Surface finishing
• Cutting to size
• Marking and traceability control
• Final inspection

For project supply, Stainless Steel Plates may be supplied together with prefabrication pipe spools and structural fabrication components for offshore and industrial projects.

Inspection & Testing

Inspection and testing are performed according to ASTM standards, EN standards and project specifications.

Typical inspection and testing include:

• Visual inspection
• Dimensional inspection
• Chemical composition analysis
• Mechanical testing
• Hardness testing
• Ultrasonic testing
• PMI (Positive Material Identification)
• Third-party inspection
• EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 certification

Full material traceability can be maintained from steel mill production to final Stainless Steel Plates delivery documentation.

 Surface: 2B, 2D, BA, NO.1, NO.4, NO.8, 8K, mirror, checkered, embossed, hair line, sandblast, Brush, etching.

Applications / Industries

Widely used in many industrial sectors requiring corrosion resistant and high strength materials, including:

• Oil & Gas
• Petrochemical Plants
• Offshore Platforms
• Pressure Vessels
• Heat Exchangers
• Storage Tanks
• Chemical Processing Plants
• Power Plants
• Marine Engineering
• Structural Components
• Industrial Equipment

Particularly suitable for fabrication, pressure equipment and structural applications where corrosion resistance and strength are required.

Packaging & Delivery

Packed according to international shipping standards to prevent damage during transportation. Plates are usually packed with wooden pallets, steel straps and waterproof wrapping.

Typical shipping documents include:

• Packing list
• Commercial invoice
• Mill test certificates
• Inspection reports
• Certificate of origin if required

Proper marking and traceability are maintained for all Stainless Steel Plates supplied for project orders.
