Sheets

Sheets are metallurgical products, where the thickness parameters are significantly lower than the parameters of length or width. The boundaries that regulate the sheet thickness are between tenths of a millimeter and several dozen millimeters.

There are sheets that have a surface or smooth texture. The sheets are delivered in the form of rolled up tapes (in coils) or flat sheets.

The sheets are divided according to the Standards PN-EN 10079: 2009:by their thickness and also by for example, the texture / surface.

Let's start with those divided according to the PN-EN 10079: 2009: standard. There are two types of sheets in this division. They are thin sheets and thick sheets.

-Thin sheets.  the thickness of such a sheet does not exceed 3 millimeters.

-Thick sheets the thickness of such a sheet must be equal to or greater than 3 millimeters.

The next division of sheets to which we will refer will be sheets divided due to their thickness. These are very thin sheets, thin sheets and thick sheets.

- Very thin sheet. It is a plate with a thickness of hundredth and even thousandths of a millimeter. The name foil is often used interchangeably.

- Thin sheet. It is characterized by the fact that the thickness of such sheet does not exceed 5 millimeters.

- Thick sheet. It is characterized by the fact that the thickness of such a sheet must be greater than 5 millimeters.

Lastly, Sheets defined by their component specification, as well as  the texture of the surface.

These are corrugated sheets, including trapezoidal and ribbed sheets, tinned sheets otherwise called white sheets, as well as clad plates.

- Corrugated sheet.

The name comes from the shape of this sheet, i.e. from the wavy shape. In this respect, the trapezoidal sheet is also distinguished. The trapezoidal sheet has a trapezoidal shape.

- Ribbed / riffled sheet.

The element that characterizes the ribbed plate is the pattern. The ribbed sheet has a patterned one-sided pattern.

- Tinplate.

It is characterized by the fact that such sheet is used mainly for the production of steel cans. The white sheet is cold-rolled. It is covered with an electrolytic tin layer. That is why the name – tinplate.

- Plated sheet.

It is characterized by the manner in which this sheet is obtained. It is obtained through one-sided or double-sided platting.

What is PLATING / cladding?

The term is mainly used in metallurgy. This is the act of applying to metal products non-thick, and even thin, layers of other metals - previously unused. E.g. application of aluminum coatings to a copper product.
