Carbon steel plate usually been considered as the steel that does not contain much alloy steel elements. Generally elements are C, Mn, P, S, Si, besides these there are no minimum limits for elements of Al, Cr, Ni, Mo, V etc.
Carbon steel plates are available in different grades depending on the carbon content and strength.
There are low, medium, and high carbon steel plates. The more carbon content, the more durable and stronger the plate becomes. There are further sub-categories depending on thickness and usage as well as the formation process. Usually carbon steel plates vary from 0.4 mm to 80 mm in thickness and 1000 mm to 45000 mm width, and they can be of length up to 18 meters. But the length is customizable which helps the customers to put them into various applications. One can also make cold rolled steel coils from them.
