Impact-Resistant Stainless Steel Plate | Reinforced for Heavy Machinery Parts
Engineered to withstand extreme loads and harsh environments, our ASTM-certified impact-resistant stainless steel plates combine unparalleled strength with corrosion resistance. Ideal for heavy machinery components, structural supports, and industrial equipment, these plates are optimized for durability in demanding applications.

Product Specifications

Mechanical & Functional Properties

Tensile Strength

Our impact-resistant stainless steel plates deliver tensile strengths of 515–650 MPa (304) and 520–690 MPa (316L), outperforming standard carbon steel and zinc-plated alternatives. The yield strength of ≥205 MPa (304) ensures structural stability under dynamic loads, making them ideal for crane arms, conveyor systems, and stainless steel weight plates in fitness equipment.

Bending Strength

With elongation rates up to 40% (304) and 35% (316L), these plates resist cracking during forming or impact. This ductility is critical for manufacturing curved machinery parts like hydraulic press frames or reinforced stainless steel plated gold decorative elements.

Material Identification & Standards

Key Designations

• ASTM A240: Specifies chromium-nickel grades (304/316L) for high-stress environments.
• EN 1.4301/1.4404: Compliant with EU standards for industrial safety and weldability.
• JIS SUS304/SUS316: Japanese standards for seismic-resistant machinery components.

Why Compliance Matters

Strict adherence to these standards ensures optimal alloy ratios (e.g., 18% Cr, 10% Ni in 304), enhancing resistance to pitting and stress corrosion cracking. For example, stainless steel plated gold finishes maintain integrity due to controlled nickel content.

Weight Calculation

Calculate plate weight using the formula:
$\text{Weight (kg)}=\text{Thickness (mm)}\times \text{Width (m)}\times \text{Length (m)}\times \text{Density (g/cm³)}$
Example: A 10 mm × 1.5 m × 3 m 304 plate weighs:
$10\times 1.5\times 3\times 7.93=356.85\text{kg}$

Why Stainless Steel Corrodes?

Despite its resilience, stainless steel may rust under specific conditions:

1. Chloride Exposure: Coastal or de-icing environments accelerate pitting in grades like 430. This is critical for outdoor stainless steel weight plates exposed to moisture.
2. Mechanical Damage: Scratches from abrasive tools disrupt the chromium oxide layer, exposing the base metal.
3. Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with dissimilar metals (e.g., carbon steel) triggers electrochemical degradation.
4. Coating Wear: For stainless steel plated gold, poor PVD coating adhesion reduces lifespan to 2–5 years vs. 10+ years for properly treated surfaces.

Why Choose Our Stainless Steel Plates?

1. Superior Impact Resistance: Outperforms stainless steel plate price competitors with 20% higher Charpy impact strength (0.0143 J/mm³ for 316L vs. 0.0118 J/mm³ for 201).
2. Custom Fabrication: Precision laser cutting and CNC bending for complex machinery parts or stainless steel weight plates.
3. Cost Efficiency: Competitive stainless steel plate price with bulk discounts (e.g., 26+ tons at $2,300/ton).
4. 10-Year Warranty: Guaranteed resistance to corrosion, warping, and UV degradation.
5. Global Certifications: ASTM, EN, and JIS compliance for industrial and architectural use.
