Steel plate Price Fluctuation

Today, most metal products are produced in the form of steel sheets, each of which is used for specific purposes. All types of steel sheets each have specific physical and structural characteristics that are used in different parts according to this structure. The price of steel plate like other steel products, is affected by currency fluctuations, and intermediary profiteers also have a significant impact on the process of increasing the price of steel plate.

What thickness does steel plate come in?

These divisions may vary according to different standards. For example, one of the most valid standards (DIN) in Germany. The division based on the thickness in this regulation is as follows:

• Thin sheets – thicknesses between 0.18 and 2.75 mm
• Medium sheets – thicknesses between 3 and 4.75 mm
• Thick sheets – thicknesses between 5 mm and more

Latest price list of steel plate in 2020

how much is steel plate price calculator? The price of the sheet depends on various factors, including the thickness, type and dimensions of the sheet. In terms of type, sheets have structural steel, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc. In terms of surface, they include ribbed, smooth, scratched, etc. surfaces. The price of sheet metal has been stable in the past due to the stability of the market and the declining demand for construction. But today, due to sharp currency fluctuations as well as increased demand for industrial uses, we are seeing an increase in sheet prices.

Another important factor that overshadows the daily price of the sheet is the global market. Due to the sanctions process, the import of sheets has been banned and imported sheets have become scarce in the market, and the available sheets are sold at high prices. On the other hand, the high cost of transportation for imported sheets has had a significant impact on the daily price of sheets.
