Stainless Steel Plate

Stainless steel plate is supplied as individual cut-length flat product for tanks, pressure equipment, process equipment, structural components, machined blanks and fabricated assemblies.

Buyers sourcing stainless steel plate, stainless steel plate stock or ASTM A240 / A240M stainless steel plate should define grade, specification, thickness, width, length and quantity before price and availability are compared.

Stainless Steel Plate Grades

Stainless Steel Plate Grade Classification

Stainless steel plate is grouped into austenitic, duplex, ferritic, martensitic and precipitation-hardening families. Choose the grade together with the required specification, dimensions and delivery condition.

Largest Stainless Plate Family

Austenitic Stainless Steels

Austenitic grades cover many common stainless plate enquiries. 304/304L and 316/316L are widely specified, while stabilized, heat-resistant and higher-alloy grades serve more demanding corrosion or temperature requirements.

304 / 304L / 316 / 316L / 321 / 347 / 309S / 310S / 904L / 254 SMO
Stainless steel plate grades for industrial procurement
Stainless Steel Plate
Frequent plate enquiries include 304, 304L, 316L, 321, 310S, 904L and 254 SMO.
Higher Strength / Duplex Structure

Duplex & Super Duplex

2304 — 2205 — 2507 — S32760
Used where higher strength and improved chloride resistance are needed. 2205 and 2507 are the main plate enquiry grades.
Chromium Stainless Family

Ferritic

409 — 430 — 439 — 444
Selected by corrosion level, forming needs, service temperature and project cost.
Hardenable Stainless Family

Martensitic

410 — 420 — 440 Series
Used where heat-treatment response, hardness, wear resistance or higher strength is required.
Heat-Treatable High-Strength Family

Precipitation Hardening

17-4PH / 630 — 15-5PH — 17-7PH
Grade and heat-treatment condition should be ordered together because the final mechanical properties depend on condition.
Choosing a stainless steel plate grade
Compare grades against corrosion environment, required strength, temperature, fabrication route and the governing specification.
One grade list does not mean one product standard.
ASTM A240/A240M covers many stainless plate grades, but not every family follows the same product specification. Confirm the grade, plate form and governing standard together at RFQ stage.

Stainless Steel Plate Sizes

Stainless Steel Plate Sizes & Thickness Range

Stainless steel plate and sheet are supplied in different rolling routes according to thickness, grade, surface condition and finished size. Common commercial dimensions can simplify procurement, while large or heavy plate sizes require a grade-specific mill-route review.

Thickness & Rolling Route

Common Thickness Groups

0.3–3.0 mm
Cold-Rolled Stainless Steel Common thin sheet / plate route for 2B, BA and other cold-rolled surface requirements.
3.0–12 mm
Hot-Rolled Stainless Steel Plate Common No.1 hot-rolled, annealed and pickled plate route for industrial fabrication.
12–100 mm
Medium / Heavy Plate Heavy hot-rolled or quarto plate route reviewed by grade, plate width and piece weight.

Common enquiry sizes include 1000 × 2000 mm, 1219 × 2438 mm and 1500 × 3000 mm, depending on grade, finish and coil availability.

General Plate Route

3.0 mm and Above Hot Rolled

Typical project formats include 1500 × 3000 mm, 1500 × 6000 mm and 2000 × 6000 mm for applicable grades and thicknesses.

Heavy / Project Plate Route

Heavy & Quarto Plate

Large sizes such as 2000 × 6000 mm or 2500 × 6000 mm require confirmation against grade, thickness, rolling route and piece-weight limits.

Example Plate Enquiries examples only — not guaranteed stock
304L Cold Rolled 1.5 × 1219 × 2438 mm
316L Hot Rolled 6 × 1500 × 6000 mm
2205 Duplex 12 × 2000 × 6000 mm
2507 Super Duplex 25 × 2000 × 6000 mm
3.0 mm is a practical procurement boundary, not an absolute metallurgical rule.
Cold-rolled stainless products can extend above 3.0 mm in some grades and mill routes, while hot-rolled plate commonly begins around 3.0 mm. TiAlloy therefore confirms the actual rolling route from grade, thickness, surface finish, finished size and required specification rather than assigning the route from thickness alone.

ASTM A480M Dimensional Tolerances

Stainless Steel Plate Thickness, Size & Flatness Tolerances

These are selected ASTM A480M standard allowances, not a claim that every TiAlloy order will be supplied at the maximum permitted variation. Tighter thickness, width, length, flatness or machining tolerances can only be quoted after the grade, actual dimensions, cutting method and inspection requirement are reviewed. For quarto plate with specified minimum yield strength of 240 MPa or higher, the applicable A480M flatness allowance can increase to 1.5 times the basic value.

Chemical composition is shown in weight percent. The colored bars are intended only as a visual comparison of the principal alloying elements and are not drawn as a certification-scale representation. Fe indicates balance. Exact chemical limits must be verified against the governing product specification and edition, such as ASTM A240 / A240M (plate, sheet & strip, including duplex grades), ASTM A480 / A480M (general requirements for flat-rolled products), ASTM A666 (cold-rolled sheet, strip, plate & flat bar for structural & pressure vessel applications) or the applicable project standard, before quotation, production or material certification.

Preparation Checklist

Attach the standard/grade, delivery form, dimensions/quantity, finish/processing, inspection-document plan and commercial/logistics basis.

TiAlloy will identify open assumptions before confirming the quote.

Choose from the next production constraint: plate for heavy or low-repeat cut parts, cut sheet for fixed blanks, coil for a line with decoiling/straightening/feed control, and slit strip for narrow continuous processing. Compare yield only after including coil handling, flatness, burr and scrap.
