PART TWO : SHEETS AND PLATES
PART ONE : SECTIONS
Mild steel sheets and plates are essentially flat material rolled into specific sizes and thickness. We can cut these materials to size for you. They come in a few differing qualities, these include...
COLD REDUCED.
These are the high end of the quality range and are available up to 3 mm thick. They have an bright oiled finish and the surface is very smooth.
HOT ROLLED.
This is standard sheet steel, dry finished (no oil) and are quite rough to the touch. They are available in thicknesses from 1.5 mm to 12.5 mm.
PICKLED & OILED.
These sheets and plates are essentially hot rolled material that has been dipped in acid and then oiled, resulting in a finish similar to the cold reduced material at a slightly lower cost. They are available in thicknesses the same as hot rolled.
GALVANISED.
These are sheets that have been galvanised ( i.e. dipped in a zinc alloy to make them resist corrosion.) although expensive in comparison, they will last outdoors for quite some time. The thicknesses available are the same as cold reduced above.
ZINC COATED.
Similar to Galvanised, but with a thiner coating which is easier to apply paint to.
WELDED MESH.
These are sheets that are made up of wire interwoven into a mesh. They are available in either a copper washed or galvanised finish in various sized sheets and in rolls.Sadly we cannot offer a cutting service for mesh.
