Home > Our Products > DSQ (Dead Soft Quality) Steel Plates > Product > HIND DSQ Plates for Tank Fabrication
Looking for formable, crack-free steel plates for galvanizing, pickling, acid, or chemical tanks? Hindustan Steel Corporation proudly offers HIND DSQ plates — our in-house line of Dead Soft Quality plates tailored for precision tank making.
Engineered to meet IS 8917:1978, HIND DSQ plates deliver:
We supply these plates in HR finish or shot-blasted, with full mechanical and chemical test reports. Ideal for tank builders, FRP lining units, galvanizing plants, and chemical process OEMs.
HIND DSQ plates are Hindustan Steel’s proprietary grade of soft mild steel designed specifically for applications that require:
These plates outperform generic HR sheets by ensuring uniform thickness, crack-free forming, and superior coating adhesion, making them the preferred material for tanks that hold acids, zinc, nickel, copper, or brine.
Our plates are regularly used in fabrication of:
Each application demands smooth forming + rust-resistance + weld quality, and that’s exactly what HIND DSQ delivers.
| Property | Typical Range |
| Yield Strength | 200 – 250 MPa |
| Ultimate Tensile | 310 – 410 MPa |
| Elongation | ≥ 25% |
| Thickness Range | 2 mm to 16 mm |
| Hardness (BHN) | < 100 |
| Forming Radius | Tight (1T–2T) |
| Compliance | IS 8917:1978 |
We also provide custom rerolled DSQ for tighter bend applications and shell rolling.
HIND DSQ Plates conform fully to IS 8917:1978, the Indian standard for cold-forming mild steel sheets and plates. Unlike IS 2062, which is structural in nature, IS 8917 prioritizes ductility, softness, and press-ability — making it ideal for tanks that need:
HIND DSQ goes beyond compliance with additional lamination check, surface scale removal, and press test approvals.
We supply HIND DSQ in:
You can also order laser/plasma cut tank panels, CNC-routed blanks, or rolled shells ready for site welding.
Thanks to its low hardness and fine grain structure, HIND DSQ plates can be:
This saves cost, time, and energy in tank manufacturing units.
| Feature | Generic HR Plate | HIND DSQ Plate |
| Standard | IS 2062 (structural) | IS 8917 (formable) |
| Formability | Moderate | Excellent |
| Surface Lamination | May occur | Controlled / Clean |
| Coating Adhesion | Varies | Excellent |
| Cut-to-Shape Supply | Limited | Available |
| Welding Distortion Risk | Higher | Lower |
We offer technical advice and custom forming guides for first-time tank builders.
We also offer:
Let us help match the right material to your tank project – based on stress, shape, and coating.
We export HIND DSQ plates to:
Our export packs include edge cleaned sheets, polywrapped bundles, and test certified supply.
If unsure — just share your tank sketch or fabrication specs — we’ll suggest the exact plate + cut format.
We provide:
DSQ bends easily, welds cleanly, and is lamination-free – perfect for forming cylindrical or lined tanks.
Yes. IS 2062 is structural. DSQ is made for forming. Use DSQ when forming is critical.
Yes. We can deliver pre-rolled shells, side walls, or cones ready to weld.
Absolutely. The smooth, lamination-free finish ensures better bonding.
Yes. Full mechanical, chemical, and compliance reports are given.
Yes, we export across Asia, Africa, and the Middle East with export packaging.
Thickness 2–16 mm, widths 1250–2000 mm, cut to length or coil.
Yes. Share your sketch or DXF, and we’ll supply it ready-to-weld.
