Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between plate and sheet?
The main difference between plate and sheet is usually thickness. Plate is generally thicker and used where strength and rigidity are required, while sheet is thinner and more suitable for fabrication, forming and lighter industrial applications. The correct option depends on the material grade, thickness, size and project specification.
What thickness does sheet become plate?
The point where sheet is classed as plate can vary depending on the material, standard and industry specification. In many general references, material above 0.25 inches, or 6.35 mm, is often treated as plate, but project requirements and material standards should always be checked.
What is the difference between stainless steel plate and sheet?
Stainless steel plate is typically selected for heavier-duty applications where strength, rigidity and durability are important. Stainless steel sheet is generally thinner and used where forming, fabrication or lighter-weight construction is required.
Can MDS Petrochemical support custom plate and sheet requirements?
Yes. MDS Petrochemical can support steel plate and sheet enquiries where material grade, size, thickness, specification and processing requirements need to be matched to the application.
What industries use plate and sheet products?
Plate and sheet products are used across petrochemical, process, industrial, engineering, fabrication, power generation and manufacturing applications, depending on the required material and specification.
Can MDS Petrochemical support related product requirements?
Yes. MDS Petrochemical can also support requirements for flanges, butt weld pipe fittings, forged pipe fittings, carbon steel fittings, studbolt fasteners, pipe and tube and valves.
