Mild Steel Plate

Mild Steel Plate is a low-carbon steel that is widely used in various industries due to its excellent weldability, machinability, and formability. It has a low carbon content, generally less than 0.25%, making it an ideal material for a range of applications, particularly where high strength is not a primary requirement.

LYH Steel supplies high-quality Mild Steel Plates, designed to meet a wide range of construction and manufacturing needs. As a leading steel distributor, we ensure that our mild steel plates offer excellent weldability, good machinability, and superior formability.
