2348mm SPHC / ASTM A36 / SAE 1006 Hot Rolled Checkered Steel Plate, 1.5 - 40.0MM Thickness

2348mm SPHC / ASTM A36 / SAE 1006 Hot Rolled Checkered Steel Plate, 1.5 - 40.0MM Thickness

1．Product Overview

Hot rolled checkered steel plate is used where a raised surface pattern and a structural hot rolled base are both required in one product. Compared with plain hot rolled plate, the checkered surface provides better grip in walking and loading areas, while the plate thickness and steel grade remain the main factors for load capacity and fabrication performance.

This product range is suitable for custom cut supply, including 2348mm length and other project-based lengths up to 12000mm. It is intended for structural flooring, access platforms, ramps, fabricated tread sections, and other industrial steel parts that require both plate strength and anti-slip surface performance.

2．Technical Solution

The product is manufactured as hot rolled steel plate with a patterned top surface. In actual use, the steel grade controls the base strength, welding behavior, and forming route, while the raised surface pattern improves contact friction on the exposed side.

SPHC and SPHT-1 are generally selected when the route follows JIS hot rolled forming grades. ASTM A36 is suitable for general structural fabrication under ASTM practice. SAE 1006 and SAE 1008 are suitable where the project or downstream route follows SAE material logic. Q195, Q235, and Q345 can be selected according to GB-based strength and fabrication requirements.

For this type of product, plate thickness should be selected according to support spacing, service load, fabrication route, and installation condition rather than surface pattern alone.

3．Specifications

4．Application

• This material is suitable for structural flooring and access areas where a patterned surface is required.
• It can be used for platforms, ramps, stair-related fabricated parts, loading areas, equipment flooring, and industrial walkways.
