Plate blanks and profiles prepared to your finished-part schedule
We supply steel plate cut into rectangular blanks and drawing-based profiles for fabricators and OEM orders. Each part keeps its grade, thickness, net dimensions and quantity. Cutting allowance, holes, edge preparation and any later machining are identified separately so the delivered blank matches the next production step.
| Material | Named steel grade, product standard and delivery condition |
|---|---|
| Rectangular blanks | Thickness × width × length with units and piece count |
| Profiles | Closed outline, holes and datum dimensions on released drawing |
| Dimension basis | As-cut size or finished machining size stated explicitly |
| Edges | As-cut, cleaned or specified bevel/machining preparation |
| Identification | Part mark tied to material or heat reference where required |
| Acceptance | Cut dimensions, squareness, edge condition and flatness stage |
| Quantity basis | Piece count and agreed theoretical or weighed mass |
Use area and nominal thickness to compare the net material in a cut list. For a rectangular blank, mass equals length × width × thickness × density.
| Thickness (mm) | Theoretical mass (kg/m²) | Mass for 0.5 m² blank (kg) |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | 47.10 | 23.55 |
| 8 | 62.80 | 31.40 |
| 10 | 78.50 | 39.25 |
| 12 | 94.20 | 47.10 |
| 16 | 125.60 | 62.80 |
| 20 | 157.00 | 78.50 |

Calculated at a conventional carbon-steel density of 7,850 kg/m³, consistent with the SSAB hot-rolled plate reference. These calculation thicknesses are a reference; the stock list and cutting capacity are quoted separately. Actual mass can differ with dimensions and grade; holes, profiles, scrap and packing are accounted for separately.
Cutting changes the part outline, not its material grade or delivery condition. Strength, toughness and any special examination requirements belong to the plate specification before the nesting plan is released.
The cutting route and edge acceptance are selected for the material, thickness and later welding or machining. Required heat-affected-edge treatment is a fabrication requirement, not a consequence to leave unspecified.
Plate mill tolerances and cut-part tolerances describe different stages. The order identifies the datum, allowed dimensional variation and condition in which the blank will be measured.
Thickness, width, length and count define each blank mark. Repeated sizes can share a cutting layout while retaining the quantities needed by each assembly.
A profile drawing fixes the outside contour, hole locations and any slot orientation. A PDF drawing carries dimensions and notes; usable CAD geometry can support nesting without replacing the released drawing.
An as-cut edge may need cleaning, beveling or machining before the next operation. Those tasks remain separate quoted work with their own final dimension and surface requirement.
Rolling direction, visible face and mirrored profiles matter where the design or downstream forming calls for them. Left- and right-hand pieces keep distinct marks instead of sharing one ambiguous outline.
Base plates, gussets and stiffeners need their actual outline and weld-edge detail. Holes and bevels are included only where scheduled, keeping a blank order distinct from a finished welded assembly.
A machining blank carries the specified stock outside the finished dimensions. The cut list distinguishes nominal plate thickness from any final machined thickness or face treatment.
Checks use the stated cut or finished dimension, including squareness and hole positions where ordered. A profiled part is checked at its stated dimensions.
Edge condition, burrs and permitted thermal effects are checked at the agreed acceptance stage. Residual stress released during cutting can change the shape of a smaller blank after it leaves the parent plate.
Part marks and material cross-references are carried through cutting where traceability is required. Heat identity comes from the material record.
Blanks are grouped by part, grade and thickness. Separators and dunnage preserve lifting access and keep small profiles from disappearing between larger plates.
The net cut-part mass differs from the parent plate consumed by nesting. Our offer identifies the material and cutting basis, with any scrap or remainder arrangement stated separately.
The packing list retains the number of each part and the bundle identity. Packaging and shipment mass are separate from the theoretical net steel figure used to compare a cut list.
A mill record describes the supplied parent material. Cut-blank flatness needs its own acceptance stage and measurement requirement because cutting can release residual stress and change the smaller part shape.
Dimension the required part and identify any machining allowance. The nesting and cutting preparation accounts for the selected process kerf; adding an unexplained kerf allowance to the finished drawing can change the supplied outline.
Remnants are a separate commercial and packing item. The offer states whether usable remainders are retained, included or excluded; their weight is not automatically part of the finished-blank quantity.
Yes, when the marking and cross-reference method is included before cutting. Very small parts may use controlled batch packing or an agreed identification method rather than individual stamping.
Conflicting geometry and dimensions need to be resolved before cutting. Use one released drawing revision as the acceptance basis and a matching digital file for production preparation.
No. Material utilization, cutting length, internal features, setup, edge work and quantity can change the price. The quotation states its actual material and processing basis instead of treating net part weight as the complete cost.
