HR Plate (Non Prime) scrap includes hot rolled plates in standard widths and lengths that carry minor imperfections or off-spec chemistry, yet provide full-sized plate stock for cost-conscious users.

Key Features – HR Plate (Non Prime)

• Non-prime plates with minor edge, shape or surface imperfections.
• Material may not fully conform to standard MS or HT chemical/mechanical requirements.
• Plate dimensions, weights and major defects are documented lot-wise.
• Lots usually mix MS and HT grades; medium carbon plates, when present, are identified separately.
• Typical thickness bands 7–16, >16–63 and >63–150 mm with widths around 1000–1550 mm and lengths 2400–6500 mm.

Applications – HR Plate (Non Prime)

• Structural fabrications where cosmetic defects are acceptable after cutting.
• Base plates, gussets, stiffeners and machinery beds.
• Torch-cut profiles and blanks for machining or forming.
• High-yield plate scrap for melting in steelmaking furnaces.
