Steel plate is a material whose main characteristics are its thickness and large size. We can find a variety of measurements, calibers and can be in sheet or plate. The plates can be manufactured under ASTM A36, A572, A709, A283, A285, A285-C and A516-70 standards.
Industries where Steel Plate is used:
• Construction: for the manufacture of large bridges that require supporting large loads.
• Naval: in the manufacture of maritime platforms and bridges.
• Railway: we find applications in train cars and structural parts of these that require resisting large loads.
• Heavy industry: it is ideal for the manufacture of agricultural, mining machinery, cranes, among others, where a material that resists impacts is sought.
• Energy: for the manufacture of boilers and towers in this type of plants in which a high level of resistance is required.
• Structuralist: for the manufacture of structures on platforms that require supporting large weight loads.
In summary, the plates are a material that can be used in different sectors where high resistance and support are sought.
Advantages and characteristics of Steel Plate:
1. High resistance: this material is capable of supporting large loads the greater its thickness and size.
2. Versatility: they are adaptable to multiple applications and projects, thanks to their wide variety of calibers, thicknesses and the possibility that they can be cut to the size required.
3. Durability: because they are highly resistant, they are a longer lasting material.
4. Environmentally friendly: steel is a material that can be recycled which contributes to sustainability.
5. Weldability: it is a material that is easy to weld with other types of steel materials.
6. Resistant to adverse climates: it is a material that withstands various climates to which it is exposed.
These features and advantages make the boards a popular and reliable choice in various industries where certain features and specifications are required to be met.
