Hot rolled steel sheet and plate provides a rougher surface than cold rolled steel and plate.
Steel sheet wih high flatness.
Specified width ft.
If it was a flat surface the steel would just bounce back to the bend.
Available in various sizes and materials.
These shape imperfections must be removed to produce a high quality steel sheet that is not only flat but will remain flat during such subsequent manufacturing operations as laser plasma and punch cutting.
Flat bars are generally used as support braces flat bars are generally used as support braces ladder hangers and gate latches.
The press brake uses a v shaped die to do this to give enough room to bend the steel.
Flatness tolerances for sheet are published only for full size sheets.
It applies to the following specifications that describe carbon steel structural steel and high strength low alloy steel hsla furnished as hot rolled sheet and cold rolled sheet.

Table a2 20 permitted variations in flatness of plate mill plate quarto plate note 1 tolerances in this table apply to any length not necessarily the rolling direction up to 36 in.
Specifications a 480 and ams 2242 cover many of the stainless steel flat products.
Squareness tolerances flat sheet and plate specified length ft.
For example 72 inch wide material with a 100 000 psi yield strength can have a crossbow of 2 to 12 in wavy edges and excessive crown.
914 mm the tolerance is not greater than in.
It is important to remember that these tolerances apply to the mill produced product where they have specialized equipment to perform flattening operations.
When galvanized it is also regularly used in applications where corrosion resistance is a necessity.

Note 3 for plates with specified minimum yield strengths of 35 ksi 240 mpa or more the permitted variations are increased to 1.
The steel will be placed in the press brake where a bend or bow is the top press is lowered just enough to bend the steel beyond the yield point.
