Supporting Ludhiana’s Engineering, Bicycle & Fabrication Belt
Ludhiana is one of North India’s strongest manufacturing centers, known for bicycle and bicycle component manufacturing, hosiery, machine tools, auto components, agricultural implements, hand tools and light engineering. These industries require dependable steel plates for machine beds, dies, fixtures, platforms, workshop fabrication, storage systems, equipment bases and maintenance jobs. Namco Industries helps buyers in Ludhiana, Khanna, Mandi Gobindgarh, Jalandhar, Sahnewal and Doraha source certified steel plates with practical grade guidance and project-ready documentation.
Mild Steel Plates Manufacture
Mild steel plates are widely used across Ludhiana’s fabrication and engineering ecosystem because they offer good weldability, formability and load-bearing capacity. They are suitable for workshop platforms, equipment bases, machine foundations, structural frames, storage systems, brackets, agricultural implements and general engineering jobs where strength and fabrication ease must work together.
Mild Steel Plate Specifications
| Common Grades | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Yield Strength (MPa) | Primary Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| IS 2062 E250 (A/BR/B0/C) | 410 min | 250 (varies by thickness) | Structural fabrication, platforms, frames |
| IS 2062 E350 (A/BR/B0/C) | 490 min | 350 (varies by thickness) | Heavy machinery, plant supports, equipment bases |
| ASTM A36 | 400 - 550 | 250 min | Industrial construction, bolted and welded structures |
Mild Steel Plate Manufacture: Key Applications in Ludhiana
- Machine bases, workshop platforms, brackets and support frames for fabrication units
- Base plates, die supports and fixture plates for machine tool and auto component workshops
- Industrial sheds, equipment foundations and maintenance plates for Ludhiana industrial areas
- General engineering, agricultural implement fabrication and project work across Punjab
Alloy Steel Plates Manufacture
Alloy steel plates are recommended where operating conditions involve higher stress, impact, heat, pressure or wear. For machine tools, dies, jigs, fixtures, heavy auto components, forging support, boiler equipment and precision engineering applications around Ludhiana and Punjab, alloy grades provide improved strength, toughness and durability compared to standard carbon steel.
Alloy Steel Plate Specifications
| Common Grades | Key Element | Characteristics | Primary Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| ASTM A516 Gr 60/70 | Carbon-Manganese | Good notch toughness and pressure performance | Pressure vessels, boilers, process equipment |
| ASTM A387 Gr 11/22 | Chrome-Moly | Heat and oxidation resistance | Boilers, high-temperature industrial equipment |
| EN10025-6 S690QL | High Yield Alloy | High strength-to-weight performance | Heavy machinery, high-load structural parts |
Alloy Steel Plate Manufacture: Industrial Uses
- High-stress brackets, fixtures, machine bases and fabricated components for engineering units
- Boiler, pressure vessel and heat exchanger fabrication for process and utility systems
- Die-support plates, tool-room fixtures, agricultural machinery parts and heavy maintenance components
- High-yield steel parts for machine tool makers, OEM suppliers and infrastructure contractors
Stainless Steel Plates Manufacture
Stainless steel plates are used wherever corrosion control, cleanability and longer service life are important. For food processing, textile and dyeing utilities, chemical handling, water treatment, clean fabrication, architectural work and industrial equipment in Punjab, SS plates help reduce maintenance and improve operational reliability.
Stainless Steel Plate Specifications
| Common Grades | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Yield Strength (MPa) | Elongation (%E) |
|---|---|---|---|
| SS304L | 500-700 | 200 | 45 |
| SS316L | 485 | 170 | 40 |
Stainless Steel Plate Manufacture: Core Applications
- Corrosion-resistant tanks, hoppers and process contact surfaces
- Water treatment, effluent handling and industrial utility equipment
- Food processing, kitchen equipment, clean-room and hygienic fabrication needs
- Architectural panels, railings, equipment covers and long-life industrial structures
Our Inspection & Traceability Protocol
Steel plates used in machine tools, auto components, agricultural implements, fabrication and plant maintenance must perform consistently under load, impact and daily shop-floor stress. That is why our supply process focuses on verified quality, proper documentation and material traceability instead of only tonnage and price.
The Namco Guarantee: Every dispatch can be accompanied by an original Mill Test Certificate (MTC) conforming to EN 10204 3.1. We also support Third Party Inspection (TPI) coordination from agencies such as SGS, TUV and DNV wherever required by project specifications.
