stainless steel usually use to fabricate washroom, sanitaryware and other products. Modern stainless steel is supplied in metric thicknesses and the table allows specifiers to convert Imperial Gauge thicknesses into millimetre equivalents.
The standards applicable to stainless steel are continually being revised. Pland ensures that the raw material used complies with relevant British and European Standards.

We generally work in the range 0.3mm - 100mm. We do not compromise material thickness to reduce cost. We will always select the most appropriate gauge for the product and its environment.
For specialist projects we are happy to discuss the project requirements and advise on sheet thickness and stainless steel grades at the outset.
