Acid & Chemical Storage

Need a steel plate that bends cleanly, welds smoothly, and withstands acid contact after lining? DSQ (Dead Soft Quality) Plates, as supplied by Hindustan Steel Corporation, are a trusted choice for chemical and acid storage tank fabrication—used in pickling plants, plating facilities, acid circulation tanks, and effluent treatment units.

Pickling Plants

Hindustan Steel Corporation supplies DSQ plates as the preferred mild steel material for constructing acid pickling plants, particularly hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sulphuric acid-based lines. These plates conform to IS 8917:1978 – the Indian Standard for deep drawing and formable carbon steel. While DSQ is not inherently corrosion-resistant, it forms a highly weldable, bendable, and stable base metal for rubber-lined, FRP-lined, or epoxy-coated acid tanks, channels, and process pits.
