In fabrication, efficiency is everything. Time lost adjusting warped plates or piecing together small sheets is time taken away from productivity and profit. That’s why leading fabrication shops are turning to
SureAlloy® Premium Carbide Overlay Plate. Engineered not only for superior wear life, but also for the
fabrication advantages that matter most on the shop floor.
Flatness that Keeps Your Process Moving
One of the biggest frustrations with many carbide overlay plates is
warping and unevenness. When a plate isn’t flat:
- CNC burning tables can’t cut cleanly.
- Clamps, jigs, and fixtures require constant adjustments.
- Secondary straightening and prep work consume valuable labor hours.
SureAlloy® Premium Carbide Overlay Plate is manufactured with
tight flatness control. This ensures plates lay flat on cutting and burning tables, reducing setup time and eliminating costly rework. Fabricators can cut with confidence, knowing their parts will stay dimensionally accurate.
The result: faster turnaround, cleaner parts, and a smoother workflow from plate to finished component.
Larger Plate Sizes for Better Utilization
SureAlloy® Premium Plates are available in
standard 90” x 120” sheets and
large-format 90” x 240” sheets. For fabrication companies, these larger sheet sizes provide major advantages:
- Reduced seams and welds – Larger sheets mean fewer joints, minimizing welding, grinding, and finishing labor.
- Improved nesting efficiency – Nesting software thrives on larger sheets, helping you maximize part yield and reduce scrap.
- Streamlined handling – Fewer pieces to move, load, and fixture means less crane time and fewer man-hours wasted.
Where smaller sheets often lead to patchwork layouts, larger SureAlloy® sheets allow fabricators to
lay out full projects in fewer plates, driving both time savings and material efficiency.
Consistency = Predictability in Fabrication
Fabricators know that consistency is key. SureAlloy® is engineered for
uniform thickness, smooth overlays, and predictable cut behavior, which translates into:
- Cleaner torch and plasma cuts, with less edge cleanup.
- Reliable bend performance, without the inconsistencies found in lower-grade plates.
- Fewer surprises, reducing downtime and costly trial-and-error adjustments.
This consistency keeps jobs on schedule and ensures parts fit the first time—critical for large assemblies in mining, steelmaking, cement, or power generation equipment.
Fabrication-Driven ROI
While SureAlloy® is known for its wear resistance in service, its true value for fabricators is
time and labor savings on the shop floor. Flatness, larger sheet sizes, and consistency mean:
- Less prep and finishing work.
- Better material utilization.
- Faster throughput from order to delivery.
- Reduced overall fabrication cost.
For fabrication shops working under tight deadlines and labor constraints, those advantages add up to real dollars saved—and more capacity to take on additional work.
Conclusion: The Fabricator’s Advantage
At SAS Global, we understand that the fabrication process is just as critical as the end performance in the field. That’s why SureAlloy® Premium Carbide Overlay Plate is designed not only to
outlast in service, but also to
outperform in fabrication.
With its
flatness, large 90” x 120” and 90” x 240” sheet sizes, and consistent quality,
SureAlloy® gives fabrication shops the tools they need to stay efficient, competitive, and profitable.
