Thermal cutting
Relia® plates are compatible with all thermal cutting
processes including oxy-fuel, plasma, and laser. Preheating
at 100 to 150 °C is recommended for plates thicker
than 40 mm (10 mm for Relia® Standard 500 and Relia®
500 Premium) or in cold environments where the plate
temperature is below 10°C. Excess preheating above
200°C may reduce the hardness of Relia®.
Cold formability
Thanks to their high cleanliness and uniform properties,
Relia® Premium plates are specifically designed for
improved formability. They are always recommended
over the Relia® Standard plates when subsequent cold
forming is required. For plates up to 20 mm thick, the
recommended minimum bending radius and die opening
are summarised in the table below. For plate thicknesses
above 20 mm, please consult us.
