Steel plates

Steel plates

Sheet metal is metal formed by an industrial process into thin, flat pieces. Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking, and it can be cut and bent into a variety of shapes. Countless everyday objects are fabricated from sheet metal. Thicknesses can vary significantly; extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf, and pieces thicker than 6 mm (0.25 in) are considered plate steel or “structural steel”.
In most of the world, sheet metal thickness is consistently specified in millimeters. Parts manufactured from sheet metal must maintain a uniform thickness for ideal results.
