Norfolk Iron & Metal stocks a variety of carbon steel plates to meet diverse industrial needs, including cold reduced, discrete plate, P&O plate, and commercial quality plate. Cold reduced plate offers a smooth finish and precise dimensions, making it ideal for applications that require close tolerances and a clean surface.
Discrete plate is typically sold in individual, flat pieces, offering flexibility for custom fabrication and construction projects. P&O plate has been treated with a pickling and oiling process, which removes scale and provides added corrosion resistance, making it ideal for outdoor or corrosive environments.
Commercial quality plate is a general-purpose option, offering a good balance of strength and weldability for a wide range of applications such as structural components, manufacturing, and fabrication.
Each type of plate is designed to meet specific performance and finish requirements for different industries and projects. To view our full available carbon steel product offering, visit the NIM Customer Portal.
