What Is Stainless Steel Plate?
Stainless steel plate has a smooth surface, high plasticity, toughness and mechanical strength, and is resistant to corrosion by acids, alkaline gases, solutions and other media. It is an alloy steel that is not easy to rust, but it is not absolutely rust-free.
Stainless steel has certain corrosion resistance, which mainly depends on its alloy composition (Cr, Ni, Ti, Si, Al, Mn, etc.) and internal structure.
Features Of Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is often divided into Martensitic Steel, Ferritic steel, Austenitic steel, Austenitic-ferritic ( duplex) stainless steel and precipitation hardening stainless steel, etc.
Besides, stainless steel plate also has high-temperature oxidation resistance, but, the oxidation rate will be affected by the inherent factors such as exposure environment and product form.
How To Make The Stainless Steel Plate?
Stainless steel plate is called stainless steel sheet too, normally, there are two kinds of ways to produce it---hot rolling and cold rolling, the two methods can be made into plate with different thickness.
In practical use, we always distinguish the hot rolled and cold rolled stainless steel plate by surface treatment. This is an easy and fast way to distinguish the difference. Usually, If the stainless steel is hot rolled, the thickness will be 3.0mm-150mm, and 0.2mm--3.0mm is for cold rolled.
