HR SHEET
HR plates, short for "Hot Rolled Plates," are steel plates that have been subjected to hot rolling processes. This manufacturing method involves passing steel slabs or billets through a series of rollers while they are hot, typically above the recrystallization temperature. This process results in the formation of plates with improved mechanical properties, such as enhanced strength, ductility, and toughness.
COMPOSITION
HR Plates are primarily made of carbon steel, but they can also contain alloying elements such as manganese, silicon, and traces of other elements depending on the specific requirements of the application.
SURFACE & FINISH
The surface finish of HR plates may vary, typically ranging from a rough, scaled surface to a smoother finish. The surface may exhibit a characteristic oxide scale due to the hot rolling process, which can be removed through subsequent processes like shot blasting or pickling.
THICKNESS & WIDTH
HR plates are available in a wide range of thicknesses and widths, catering to various industrial applications. Common thicknesses range from 3mm to 150mm or more, while widths can vary from 600mm to 3000mm or beyond.
STRENGTH & DURABILITY
HR plates exhibit high strength and durability, making them suitable for applications where structural integrity and load-bearing capacity are crucial.
