| Description |
Hot rolled steel is produced by rolling steel at temperatures above its recrystallization point (typically 1700°F or higher). This processing enhances its formability and workability compared to unprocessed steel, simplifying subsequent operations. Steel plates are hot rolled products known for their substantial thickness. Items with a thickness greater than 4.5 mm are categorized as steel plates, while those exceeding 100 mm are generally known as thick steel plates. |
| Specification |
Steel Plates specifications generally surround its yield strength and tensile strength. You may find the charts here helpful. |
| Common Applications |
Steel plates has a very wide application base. Construction industry, military, household appliances, automotive, road work, etc. |
| Common Processing |
Produced at elevated temperatures on rolling mills, then temper passed or stretcher leveling downstream to eliminate coil memory. Further processing may be required for different finishings. |

Gratings and Expanded Metals
| Description | Steel Grating is a durable metal grid designed to offer enhanced traction in industrial environments, facilitating safe footing. It features a pattern that promotes efficient liquid and debris drainage, often including raised surfaces for improved grip. With its high strength, Safety Grating can withstand heavy loads yet remains easy to maneuver, cut, customize, and install onsite. Its corrosion-resistant properties, available in stainless steel, aluminum, and galvanized options, make it a favored choice for improving safety and minimizing maintenance in industrial settings. |
| Common Material | carbon steel, galvanized steel, aluminium, austenitic stainless steel |
| Common Applications | Stairs and steps, Scaffolding and work platforms, Catwalks, Vehicle steps or access trays, Roof access or walkways, Balconies, Non-slip industrial flooring for wet areas. |
| Description |
Expanded metal is a sheet metal mesh. It is made by stretching a slitted sheet of malleable metal. The orientation of the slits is perpendicular to the direction of the stretch. The result of such stretching is an array of holes on the slits – to give a mesh form. |
| Common Material |
|
| Common Applications |
Its many small openings in the material allow flow through of air, water, and light, while still strong (compared to wire mesh) provides a mechanical barrier to larger objects.

Steel Processes
| Description | Shot blasting is a surface treatment process that uses high-velocity steel abrasives to clean and prepare materials for secondary finishing operations. By directing abrasive particles at speeds of 65-110 m/second, shot blasting effectively removes surface contaminants through abrasive impact, ensuring excellent cleaning and preparation. |
| Purpose | - The cleaning of iron, steel, non-cast parts, forgings, etc. - Mechanical cleaning of sheets, rods, coils, wire, etc. - Shot peening to alter mechanical properties (increasing resistance to fatigue for springs, gears, etc.) - Preparing surfaces to be painted, coated, etc. |
| Description | Primed steel involves applying a primer or undercoat before painting to improve adhesion of the final coating. This process provides additional protection and enhances the durability of both the steel and the coating. |
| Purpose |
- Protect against the effects of environmental exposure. |
| Description | Steel shearing is a manufacturing process used to cut sheet metal into precise shapes or sizes using a machine called a shear. This machine employs a sharp blade to apply high force, cleanly slicing through the metal. Widely utilized in manufacturing and metalworking industries, steel shearing ensures efficient and accurate cutting of metal sheets by bending and breaking them along straight lines. The process involves a set of blades, a hold-down mechanism for securing the metal sheet, and a backgauge for precision cutting. |
| Purpose |
Shearing is usually the first step in processing steel. Large pieces are stamped or sheared into smaller pieces, preparing it for further fabrication or assembly in various industrial applications. |
| Description |
Hot-dip galvanizing involves immersing iron or steel in molten zinc to create a corrosion-resistant coating of zinc-iron alloy and zinc metal. During this process, a metallurgical reaction occurs between the steel and the molten zinc, resulting in a uniform coating thickness across all surfaces. |
| Purpose |
This coating enhances the steel's durability and provides long-lasting, maintenance-free corrosion protection at a reasonable cost for decades. |

We specialize deeply in 2 kinds of steels; SS304 and SS316.
As a quick way to differentiate them, 304 contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel while 316 contains 16% chromium, 10% nickel and 2% molybdenum. The molybdenum is added to help resist corrosion to chlorides (like sea water and de-icing salts).
Upon quotation issued, our written prices are promised until expiration date. Expiration date is usually 30 days from date of issue unless otherwise stated on the quotation.
Feel free to discuss this with us for possible flexibility!
