Product Spotlights
Hemaokang Steel (Shandong) Co., Ltd. is proud to present our 316 Stainless Steel Plate with 2B Surface and 1.5mm Thickness – a premium material specifically engineered for the demanding requirements of food processing equipment. As a newly established yet rapidly growing exporter with an annual export value between US$50 million and US$100 million, we combine advanced manufacturing capabilities with strict quality control to deliver plates that ensure hygiene, durability, and corrosion resistance. Our 316 grade stainless steel, featuring molybdenum addition, offers superior protection against pitting and crevice corrosion caused by acidic food substances and cleaning agents, making it the ideal choice for tanks, conveyors, tables, and utensils in the food industry.
The 2B surface finish provides a smooth, reflective, and easy-to-clean surface that meets stringent sanitary standards. With a precise thickness of 1.5mm, our plates strike the perfect balance between strength and workability, allowing for fabrication into a wide range of components without compromising structural integrity. Whether you require standard sizes or custom dimensions, our flexible production lines can accommodate your specific needs. Backed by ISO9001 certification and a dedicated team of 51–100 employees, we ensure consistent quality from our base in Liaocheng, Shandong, with convenient shipment via Qingdao port to markets worldwide.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: The addition of 2–3% molybdenum in 316 stainless steel provides exceptional resistance to chlorides, acidic foods, and saltwater environments, extending equipment lifespan.
- Hygienic 2B Surface: Cold-rolled and bright annealed finish offers a mirror-like appearance that minimizes bacterial adhesion and simplifies cleaning, meeting FDA and EU food contact standards.
- Precise Thickness Control: Our 1.5mm plates are manufactured with tight tolerances (±0.05mm) to ensure uniform performance in fabrication and assembly.
- Excellent Weldability & Formability: 316 stainless steel can be easily welded, bent, and cut without losing its corrosion-resistant properties, allowing for complex equipment designs.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in widths from 1000mm to 1500mm and lengths up to 6000mm (or as per your request) to optimize material utilization.
- High Strength & Durability: With a minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa and yield strength of 205 MPa, our plates withstand heavy loads and mechanical stress in food processing lines.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the minimum order quantity for 1.5mm 316 stainless steel plates?
A: Our standard MOQ is 1 ton for stock sizes. For custom dimensions, we can negotiate based on the order volume. Contact us for details. -
Q: Can you provide samples for testing before bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer free samples for small quantities (e.g., A4 size). You only need to cover the shipping cost. This allows you to verify the quality and surface finish. -
Q: How long does delivery take?
A: For standard sizes, delivery is typically 15–20 working days after order confirmation. Custom sizes may require 25–30 working days. We coordinate with you to meet your schedule. -
Q: Is the 2B surface suitable for direct contact with food?
A: Absolutely. The 2B finish is a cold-rolled, bright annealed surface that is smooth and non-porous, making it easy to clean and resistant to bacterial adhesion. It complies with food contact regulations. -
Q: What tolerances do you guarantee for thickness?
A: We adhere to ASTM A240 standards, which allow a thickness tolerance of ±0.05mm for 1.5mm plates. This ensures precision in your fabrication. -
Q: Can you cut the plates to custom sizes or provide laser cutting services?
A: Yes, we offer custom cutting (shearing, laser, or plasma) according to your drawings. Additional charges apply for complex shapes. Please inquire. -
Q: How do you ensure the corrosion resistance of 316 plates?
A: We perform chemical composition analysis and intergranular corrosion tests on each heat. The molybdenum content is strictly controlled to meet the 316 specifications. -
Q: Do you have stock in overseas warehouses?
A: Currently, we ship directly from our factory in Shandong, China. However, we can arrange expedited shipping via air freight for urgent orders. We are also exploring overseas distribution centers.
