TAPPI TIP0402-04

A clad-steel plate is a composite plate made by uniformly and integrally bonding a layer of corrosion resistant metal to a carbon or low alloy steel backing plate. This may be done by: hot rolling suitably prepared sandwiches to give the desired bond and plate thickness, explosion bonding components already reduced to final thickness, or explosion bonding components followed by hot rolling to obtain desired plate thickness. Cladding thickness usually varies from 15% to 30% of base or backing metal thickness; however, virtually any thickness combination can be produced.
