MS Sheet Thickness and Size Variati ons
Thickness and Size Variations
● Mild steel sheets typically range in thickness from 1.2 mm to 100 mm, whereas mild steel plates start at 3 mm and go up to 100 mm.
● The width of mild steel sheets can vary from 1200 mm to 3000 mm, while plates have widths ranging from 1200 mm to 2400 mm.
● Custom sizes are available for both sheets and plates, with hot rolled sheets having lengths from 2500 mm to 12000 mm and cold rolled sheets ranging from 2000 mm to 2500 mm in length.
● Perforated mild steel sheets can have thicknesses starting from 0.4 mm up to 5 mm, catering to various industrial applications.
● Manufacturers often provide customized dimensions based on specific customer requirements.
E250 vs E350 MS Plates
Yield Strength and Properties
● Grade E250 has a yield strength of 250 MPa.
● Grade E350 has a yield strength of 350 MPa, indicating higher strength.
● Both grades are used in structural applications based on strength requirements.
Applications and Uses
● E250 is commonly used for general structural applications and storage tanks.
● E350 is preferred in high-rise structures and bridges due to its strength.
● Choosing between grades depends on the specific structural needs and load requirements.
Specifications of Mild Steel Plates
Grades of Mild Steel
Plates
Density of Mild Steel
Mild steel plates are categorized into various grades according to standards such as IS 2062 E250, E350, ASTM A36, and EN 10025 grades. Each grade has specific properties and applications.
The density of mild steel plates is approximately 7.85 g/cm³, which is crucial for weight calculations and material selection.
HSN Code for Mild Steel
The HSN (Harmonized System of Nomenclature) code for mild steel plates is 7208, used for customs and trade classification.
Calculating MS Sheet Weight
Weight Calculation Formula
The weight of mild steel sheets is calculated using the formula: Weight (kg) = Length (m) x Width (m) x Thickness (mm) x Density (7.85 g/cm³).
MS Sheet Dimensions
Typical dimensions for MS sheets are 1200 mm x 2400 mm. The weight per square meter changes based on the thickness of the sheet.
Weight Chart Overview
A weight chart provides the weight per square meter for various thicknesses, allowing for quick reference when calculating total weight.
Example Calculations
For a 3 mm thick sheet of size 1.2m x 2.4m: Weight = 1.2 x 2.4 x 3 x 7.85/1000 = 23.55 kg.
Plus tip:
Customize this slide by adding specific weight charts relevant to your application or include more examples of weight calculations.
