Ever wondered why the dimensions of stainless steel plates vary so widely? Stainless steel plates come in a variety of standard sizes and thicknesses to meet different industry needs. This article provides a comprehensive chart of these dimensions, highlighting common widths and lengths for both cold-rolled and hot-rolled plates. By understanding these specifications, you can make informed decisions when selecting materials for your projects. Dive into the details to optimize your material procurement and ensure your project’s success.
What are the specifications and dimensions of stainless steel plates?
To be more precise, what is the standard size of a stainless steel plate?
For instance, the typical widths of 1mm thick stainless steel plates are 1 meter and 1.219 meters.
Typically, the size of hot-rolled stainless steel plates is 1.5 meters by 6 meters (width by length).
What is the width of an entire stainless steel plate? How many specifications are available for stainless steel widths? What are the dimensions of stainless steel plates in various thicknesses in terms of width and length?
Considering these stainless steel plate specifications, I have compiled the size specifications for common stainless steel plates (thickness, width, length):
| Specification table of stainless steel plate Unit: mm | ||||
| Thickness Width * Length | <1 | >1，<3 | 3-6 (cold rolling) | 3-16 (hot rolling) |
| 1000*2000 | common | common | less | – |
| 1219*2438 | common | common | less | – |
| 1219*3048 | common | common | less | – |
| 1500*3000 | less | common | common | less |
| 1500*6000 | less | less | common | common |
| 1800*3000 | less | less | Less | – |
| 1800*6000 | less | less | less | less |
| 2000*3000 | less | less | less | – |
| 2000*6000 | less | less | less | less |
| Other dimensions | Customized on demand | |||
Remarks:
It should be noted that these steel plate dimensions are commonly used stainless steel plate dimensions in production and life, not national mandatory standards.
1. The common dimensions (width x length) of stainless steel plates with a thickness of 1mm or less are 1000mm x 2000mm and 1219mm x 2438mm. (These two sizes are widely available and therefore easier to purchase.)
Please note that the standard size of stainless steel plates (or the standard length and width of steel plates) can vary from country to country and region to region. There is no national mandatory standard in this regard. The above-mentioned commonly used steel plate sizes are for reference only.
By understanding the general size, width, and length of stainless steel plates, it will be easier to procure, prepare goods, and cut to size.
I hope the compiled stainless steel specifications, models, and size chart will be useful to you.
What are the length and width of a 304 stainless steel plate?
For hot-rolled plates, 304 is 6 meters long and 1.5 meters wide.
For cold-rolled sheets, 304 sheets are available in lengths of 3 meters, 1.5 meters, 2.44 meters, or 1.22 meters and with a width of 1.5 meters.
