20mm Thick Stainless Steel Plate

20mm thick stainless steel plate belongs to heavy hot rolled stainless steel plate. It is widely used in structural engineering, equipo de presion, fabricación de maquinaria, and heavy industrial applications due to its high strength, rigidity, and excellent load-bearing capacity.

Unlike thin stainless steel sheets, 20mm plates are mainly produced through hot rolling processes and are supplied in standard or customized cut sizes depending on project requirements.

Standard Thickness Category

20mm stainless steel plate is part of the heavy plate range:

• Thin plate: 0.3mm – 3.0mm (laminado en frio)
• Medium plate: 3mm – 12mm (laminado en caliente)
• Heavy plate: 12mm – 100mm+ (laminado en caliente)

👉 20mm belongs to heavy hot rolled stainless steel plate

Common Standard Widths

Hot rolled stainless steel plates are usually produced in wide slab formats and then cut into standard widths.

Typical widths include:

In heavy industrial supply, wider plates (arriba a 2500 mm or customized widths) are also available.

Common Standard Lengths

Length is often flexible and can be cut according to project requirements.

Typical lengths include:

Longer plates (arriba a 12000 milímetros) can be produced for large engineering structures.

Typical Supply Forms

20mm stainless steel plates are generally supplied in:

• Hot rolled plate (Superficie nº1)
• Cut-to-size plate
• Rough machined plate
• Annealed condition
• Pickled surface condition

Common Edge Types

Depending on processing requirements:

• Mill edge (standard hot rolled edge)
• Sheared edge (cut to size)
• Flame cut edge (heavy fabrication use)
• CNC cut edge (componentes de precisión)

Weight Reference (Approximation)

For 20mm stainless steel plate:

• Densidad: ~7.93 g/cm³
• Weight formula: thickness × width × length × density

Example reference:

• 20mm × 1500mm × 6000mm ≈ 1416 kg per piece (aprox.)

Common Applications of 20mm Stainless Steel Plate

Due to its thickness and strength, 20mm stainless steel plate is widely used in heavy-duty industries:
