Mild Steel Plate Thickness Tolerance

A1 4 plate mill product tolerances hot rolled steel plate.

Mild steel plate thickness tolerance.

254 0 mm excl in thickness the tolerance under the specified thickness is 0 010 in. It s often used as wear strips liners and deflector plates. Sheet metal is manufactured and delivered from the processing mill rolled to the standard thickness that you specify which is now metric. Thickness is measured at any point more than 25mm from any edge excluding ground areas.

For thicknesses tolerances applicable where the surface was repaired by grinding refer to en 10163 2 delivery requirements for surface condition of hot rolled steel plates. Tight tolerance multipurpose oil hardening o1 tool steel. The sheet metal does however have a tolerance on the rolling thickness which needs to be taken into account when designing a tight fitting assembly especially as the sheet metal material gets thicker. Also known as mild steel low carbon steel is easy to machine form and weld.

W 7 85 t 2 where. Sheet metal guage tolerances. A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters. For steel type l a maximum of 1 and for steel type h a maximum of 1 5 of the distance between points of contact on the plate between 300 and 1000mm but not exceeding the values in the above table.

The permissible under thickness is 0 3 mm for all dimensions. Tolerance under specified thickness 010 x 3 4 x 52 wide plate for example would have a tolerance range of 740 780 because of tolerances ie thickness flatness and camber as well as the hot roll condition astm a36 generally does not finish to specified thickness. Width mm length mm thickness mm density kg m 3. Actual thickness will vary due to tolerances.

For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter. Steel sheets and plates are typical stocked as size 2000 mm x 3000 mm. A thickness is measured along the longitudinal edges of the plate at least 3 8 in. B for plates up to 10 in.

During the rolling process the rollers bow slightly which results in the sheets being thinner on the edges. 76 20mm from the edge. The tolerances in the table and attachments reflect current manufacturing practices and commercial standards and are not representative of the manufacturer s standard gauge which has no inherent tolerances.

Special flatness tolerances class s. 9 52 mm but not more than 3 in.
