Product type
Slabs are semi-finished forms of metal, typically produced through the casting or rolling of molten metal. They are characterized by their flat, rectangular shape and can be made from various metals, including steel, aluminum, and copper. Slabs serve as the foundational material for further processing into finished products such as sheets, plates, and other structural components.
| Material | Steel, aluminum, or copper |
| Thickness range | 50 mm to 300 mm |
| Width range | 800 mm to 2500 mm |
| Length range | 2000 mm to 6000 mm |
| Surface finish | Hot-rolled or cold-rolled |
When choosing slabs, consider the specific metal type required for your application, as well as the thickness, width, and length that will best suit your production needs. It's important to specify any necessary surface finishes and tolerances. Buyers should also inquire about certifications and quality standards that the slabs meet, particularly for industries with stringent requirements.
