Choosing the Right Metal Plate & Sheet for Your Application

When completing any metal plate or sheet project, selecting the right materials, grades, manufacturing processes, and finishes is key to achieving the best results. These elements can be used to enhance specific properties that suit your application.

One of the primary considerations is material selection based on your application:

Titanium

  • This metal has the highest strength-to-density ratio and can incorporate elements like iron or aluminum. Because of its high corrosion resistance, we are able to offer this material in many custom shapes and sizes.
  • Extensively used in aircraft structures, jet engines, spacecraft, and military armor. Also ideal for marine and harsh chemical processing environments.

Nickel & high-temperature nickel alloys

  • Nickel works with many other metals, such as stainless steel, chromium, and titanium. Many of the alloys we can provide are able to tolerate temperatures exceeding 1000 °C.
  • Used in jet engines, gas turbines, and heat exchangers to resist extreme temperatures and oxidation. Also utilized in chemical processing plants, desalination systems, and marine environments.

Aluminum

  • Another popular option is aluminum, which is strong but lightweight. We recommend this material for its flexibility and ease of fabrication, non-combustible nature, and conductivity.
  • Used in next-generation unmanned surface and underwater vehicles as well as spacecraft shielding.

Stainless steel

  • Stainless steel plates and sheets from Continental Steel are known for their reliable performance in harsh conditions.
  • Used in building facades, roofing, elevators, and structural components, as well as food processing and medical equipment.

Carbon steel

  • This metal provides several advantages that make it a popular option in many applications, such as high durability, sustainability and ease of recycling, safe handling, and cost-effectiveness. We can have raw materials cut to length or sheared for easy shipping.
  • Used in modular construction and earthquake-resistant buildings in advanced structural engineering. Also used in complex aerospace and automotive components to improve efficiency and performance.

Alloy steel

  • We can use these materials to ensure high impact resistance and can withstand high pressure, temperature variations, and heavy loads.
  • Commonly used in bridges, buildings, pressure vessels, and pipelines. Also used to manufacture structural components, chassis, and body panels for automobiles, aircraft, and heavy-duty vehicles.

Copper, brass, and bronze

  • These metal materials provide a blend of durability, lightweight nature, conductivity, and affordability. We supply these in a variety of parts, shapes, and services to meet your needs.
  • These are commonly used for roofing, wall cladding, and plumbing systems. Copper is also widely used in electrical wiring, circuit boards, and busbars.

In addition to these materials, you can choose from various specialty sheet metal options, including expanded and perforated sheet metal, along with cold- or hot-rolled steel plate and sheet options. Corrosion-resistant coating options are also available.

Metal Plate vs. Metal Sheet: Understanding the Difference

In most cases, metal plates are thicker than metal sheets; plates have a thickness of 3/16″T or thicker, while metal sheets normally remain under 3/16″T. This added thickness makes metal plates more difficult to bend or shape, which is why cutting is the most common method to create the custom plates we offer.

Some potential applications for metal plates from Continental Steel include:

  • Structural components (including foundations for buildings and bridges)
  • Vehicle underframes
  • Covers for potholes and other road features or faults

Meanwhile, the following are some common applications for metal sheets from Continental Steel:

  • Cladding
  • Automotive panels
  • Building supports
