Why it works
Why choose this steel sheet
Standard tools handle it
Cut with an angle grinder or guillotine and drill with a normal HSS bit - no specialist steel-fabrication kit needed.
A genuine solid panel
This is solid steel plate, not mesh, perforated or expanded stock, so it gives a continuous flat surface to build from.
Heavier 2.8mm gauge
At 2.8mm this is one of the sturdier sheets in the range, giving more rigidity for brackets, plates and repair patches.
Ready for your own finish
Supplied plain and uncoated, so it's ready to prime, paint or powder coat once cleaned and lightly keyed.

Frequently asked questions
What size and thickness is this steel sheet?
What size and thickness is this steel sheet?
It's a 2.8mm thick steel sheet, supplied cut to a fixed 250 x 500mm. It's one of the heavier gauges in our flat steel sheet range.
Does this sheet come galvanised or treated against rust?
Does this sheet come galvanised or treated against rust?
No, it's plain, uncoated mild steel, not galvanised. It will rust if left outside or unprotected, so paint, oil or otherwise treat it if it's not going straight into use.
What tools do I need to cut or drill it?
What tools do I need to cut or drill it?
An angle grinder, guillotine or jigsaw with a metal-cutting blade will cut it, and a standard HSS metal drill bit will go through it. Clamp the sheet securely and wear eye protection.
What's this gauge of sheet best used for?
What's this gauge of sheet best used for?
The 2.8mm thickness suits jobs needing more rigidity than a thin sheet - backing plates, brackets, repair patches and general fabrication and DIY work.
Is this steel sheet sold in other sizes or thicknesses?
Is this steel sheet sold in other sizes or thicknesses?
Yes, this range covers several thicknesses and this fixed 250 x 500mm size - contact us if you need a different gauge or a custom cut.
Does it need priming or preparing before I paint it?
Does it need priming or preparing before I paint it?
Clean off any oil or mill residue and lightly key the surface first - standard prep for uncoated mild steel, as it isn't pre-primed.
Can this thickness be used for structural or load-bearing work?
Can this thickness be used for structural or load-bearing work?
It's suited to light and medium-duty use such as brackets, plates and repairs. For anything load-bearing, have the application checked by a qualified engineer first.
