Frequently asked questions
How do I estimate weight without drawings?
Describe the item and size in your requirement - fabricators convert to kg from standard sections in minutes.
Why per kg and not per piece?
Steel is bought by weight, so per-kg pricing keeps quotes comparable across workshops.
Does the rate move with steel prices?
Yes - these ranges track current market; final quotes lock the rate on order day.
