Types and Applications of Rolled Metal Products: A Complete Guide
Introduction to Rolled Metal Products
Rolled metal products are essential materials in modern industry, created by passing metal through rollers to achieve desired thickness and shape. These products—including sheets, plates, structural shapes, and tubes—are widely used in construction, transportation, machinery, and more.
At Walmay Steel, we specialize in high-quality stainless steel rolled products, ensuring durability and precision for various industrial applications.
Types of Rolled Metal Products
1. Sheets & Plates
Customers who received our products all expressed that they were very satisfied with the quality of our products. The first purchase laid the foundation for customers to place orders again.
Rolled metal sheets (thin) and plates (thick) are among the most common forms, available in:
Stainless steel (304, 316L) – Corrosion-resistant for food processing, medical, and marine uses
Carbon steel – Structural applications like bridges and shipbuilding
Aluminum & copper – Lightweight for aerospace and electronics
Applications:
✔ Construction (roofing, cladding)
✔ Automotive (body panels, chassis)
✔ Industrial equipment (tanks, machinery)
2. Structural Shapes (Rolled Steel Beams, Angles, Channels)
These include:
I-beams & H-beams – High load-bearing capacity for construction
Angle bars – Framework reinforcement
Channels (U-sections) – Support structures in manufacturing
Key Uses:
✔ Building frames & bridges
✔ Heavy machinery manufacturing
✔ Shipbuilding and rail infrastructure
3. Tubes & Pipes (Rolled Metal Tubular Products)
Manufactured via seamless or welded rolling, including:
Round, square, rectangular tubes
Stainless steel pipes (for chemical/food-grade applications)
Carbon steel pipes (for oil/gas transport)
Applications:
✔ Plumbing & HVAC systems
✔ Automotive exhaust systems
✔ Industrial fluid transport
