FAQ

Which plate grade do I need for a structure?

For general structures in the EU the reference is EN 10025-2: S235JR for light structures, S275JR for medium loads, S355J2 where strength or low-temperature toughness matters. Your engineer's drawing states the grade; we supply exactly that grade with its certificate.

Can you cut plates to size?

Yes. Flame or plasma cutting to drawing is available, including bevelled edges on request.

What tolerances apply?

Thickness tolerances follow EN 10029, flatness and dimensions EN 10029 as well; tighter classes are available on request at a surcharge.

Do you supply plates without certificates at a lower price?

Yes, that is our non-prime range: plates out of tolerance or without documents, sold as seen. See the non-prime steel page.

How fast can you deliver?

Standard formats in common grades usually ship within one to two weeks; cut pieces and special grades depend on the mill or cutter schedule. We confirm the date in writing before you order.
