Metallurgical Process:
Employing the best steel making technology and processes, Essar Steel plates contain low levels of sulphur,

phosphorous and gaseous content. Calcium treatment and inclusion shape control reduces internal discontinuities

giving plates improved toughness, enhanced fatigue life, better weldability and excellent shape properties.

TMCP- ADCO/DQ
Thermo Mechanical Controlled Processed (TMCP) with Accelerated Direct Cooling (ADCO) and Direct Quenching

(DQ) facilities offer Steel plates with improved abrasion resistance and wear performance, good formability and high

tensile strength with high toughness.

Customised Plate:
Equipped with advanced Hydraulic Automatic Gauge Control (HAGC), online Gamma Thickness Gauge and L-2

Automation, Essar Steel can supply steel plates as per actual thickness, width, length and profiles, required for

specific projects or applications.

ASTM:
L-2 automation with no manual intervention and a walking beam furnace with a powerful de-scaler ensures that the

steel plates are precision manufactured to be supplied with consistency and maintains ASTM tolerances.
