MS Beams

I – Beam:
It is represented by dimensions of Web & Flange. For e.g. 150×75 beam means,
Width of Web = 150mm
Width of Flange = 75mm

MS I Beams are used for manufacturing of truck-trailers, EOT cranes and its Gantry, ship building, factory sheds, conveyors, boilers, agricultural equipment, and many more engineering industries.

H – Beam:

In H-Beam generally the sizes of the Web & Flange are almost equal. When we say, 254 x 254 beam means Web = 254mm & Flange = 254mm.

MS Flats

MS Flats are generally used in Industrial gratings, various fabrication works & domestically, it is used in grills outside window.

Representation of M.S. Flats is done by the Width (W) & the Thickness (T) of the Flat.

For example: When we say 25 X 5 FLAT, it means Width= 25mm & Thickness = 5mm.

Following are the various sizes of HR Sheets in terms of Thickness:-

As per British Standards thickness used to be represented by Gauge (G).

Manufacturers of MS flats
Primary Producers:-
There are no primary manufacturers of MS Flats.

Secondary Producers:-
The List of Secondary Producers Location-wise is given in the Annexure

Grades & Quality:-
There are no Primary producers of MS Flats only the Secondary producers i.e. Rolling Mills produces MS Flats. Various Rolling Mills follow the grades & quality specifications given in IS 2062. In general, MS Flats produced by the Secondary Manufacturers passes the physical parameters but fails to match the chemical properties of IS 2062 except few Rolling Mills.
