Use this general-purpose steel sheet from RS PRO to construct machine parts and items such as cans. It's made from a steel material that has an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio for durability. There's also a tin coating that resists oxidation and corrosion, so it's suitable for use in damp areas.


Thanks to the sheet's good formability characteristics, it can be shaped to the structure you need for your application. It's also suitable for welding, as it attaches easily to other materials. It's compatible with a variety of paints and lacquers, allowing you to write and draw on it when producing items such as cans. Its large dimensions of 500 mm by 300 mm mean it can be used in a number of different tasks. You'll find this sheet used in the manufacturing industry as well as in the aerospace industry to produce aeroplane wings.
