Mill Plate: Please inquire for plate thicknesses less than 0.250 inches and over 2.0 inches, plate widths less than 72 inches and greater than 120 inches, and for plate lengths less than 240 inches and greater than 1020 inches. For plate thicknesses less than 0.250 inches, the maximum width is 96 inches.

Temper Leveled Plate: SSAB's Cut-To-Length facilities use the temper leveled coil (TLC) process to produce temper leveled plate products. For additional information concerning our temper leveling process, please refer to our SSAB Americas: North American Cut-to-Length Operations brochure located under the Downloads section of our Commercial Steels Overview page.

Coils for Conversion To: Coils are excluded from qualification to this specification until they are processed into a finished plate product and all required processing, inspections, and testing are performed. Coils For Conversion To product will be certified to chemistry only. Coils will be subject to availability, so please inquire. Please inquire for coil thicknesses greater than 0.625 inches and for coil widths less than 60 inches and greater than 96 inches. Slitting capabilities are determined by strength levels and thicknesses, so please inquire all slit coil opportunities.

Tolerances

Tolerances for Mill Plate:
Thickness, width and length tolerances for A283 Grade D plates are in accordance with ASTM A6. ASTM A6 Half-Standard Flatness tolerances are available for plate thicknesses of 3/8 inches to 2.0 inches. Inquire for specific mill flatness capabilities.

Tolerances for Temper Leveled Plate:
Thickness, width and length tolerances for A283 Grade D plates are in accordance with ASTM A6. ASTM A6 Half-Standard Flatness tolerances or better are available for temper leveled plates. Flatness capabilities are determined bythe processing line and the minimum yield strength of the material.

Tolerances for Coils for Conversion To:
For minimum gauge orders, thickness and width tolerances are in accordance with the respective ASTM specifications of A568 for thicknesses of less than 0.230 inches, exclusive, and A635 for thicknesses of 0.230 inches to 1.00 inch, inclusive. Thickness tolerances are in accordance with Table S1.1 found in each of the ASTM specifications of A635 and A568, respective of thickness. Width tolerances are in accordance with Table 6 of ASTM A568 and Table 3 of ASTM A635. Thickness tolerances for nominal gauge orders must be inquired.

All tolerances will be confirmed to the customer via SSAB's Order Acknowledgement document.
