Precision Mild Steel Cutting Services Across the UK

Mild steel is one of the most versatile and cost-effective materials in manufacturing and fabrication. RMP Products has been specialising in mild steel cutting services for over three decades, using our plasma and flame cutting capabilities to produce precision cuts tailored to the needs of different industries. These methods are preferred for cutting mild steel due to their versatility with thickness while still achieving precise results, helping to reduce lead times in the process.

Since our founding, we have specialised in cutting mild steel grades up to 60mm thick for industries ranging from earth moving to rail and transport. Our unique plasma & flame cutting machines, can handle a wide range of carbon and mild steels with a maximum length of 16 metres and width of 5 metres.

At RMP, our mild steel cutting services operate around the clock, allowing us to deliver projects as quickly as possible without compromising on quality, whether plasma cutting a sheet or flame cutting a thicker section of mild steel.

Advantages of Mild Steel Cutting with RMP Products

State-of-the-Art Equipment

From our twin-headed 460 Amp Viper, the first of its kind in Europe, to our 7-head gas cutting machines, our facility is equipped with top-of-the-range machinery, perfect for all types of mild steel cutting.

 

Diverse Cutting Capabilities

Mild steel is ideal for high-precision cutting, which plasma cutting delivers perfectly. For thicker steels, flame cutting is the better option, and we offer both methods, ensuring we can meet whatever cutting requirements you have.

24-Hour Service

We cut mild steel to size around the clock, providing fast turnaround times without compromising the accuracy of your cut.

 

Finishing & Machining Available

In addition to our mild steel cutting services, we also provide precision machining and finishing services, allowing your project to be completed entirely in-house.

Benefits of Mild Steel Cut to Size

Here’s some key advantages of cutting mild steel:

Easily Cut: With a low carbon content of typically 0.05% to 0.25%, mild steel is relatively soft and highly ductile. This makes it easy to cut into a wide range of shapes and sizes for different applications.

Cost-Effective: Mild steel is the most affordable type of steel and is significantly cheaper than materials like stainless steel or aluminum, making it perfect for budget-conscious projects or large-scale production.

Excellent Weldability: Mild steel offers superb welding properties, allowing strong, high-integrity joints to be made using almost any welding technique.

Efficient Cutting Methods: Mild steel performs exceptionally well with a variety of cutting methods, from modern laser cutting to traditional oxy-fuel techniques. It delivers excellent edge quality, fast processing, and minimal material waste.

Industries Using Mild Steel

Mild steel’s strength, versatility and affordability make it a key material across a wide range of sectors. At RMP, our mild steel cut to size service supports industries including:

  • Construction: Structural beams, plates and reinforcement components.

  • Manufacturing: Machine parts, enclosures and equipment frames.

  • Transport and Automotive: Chassis parts, brackets and body panels.

  • Energy and Utilities: Base plates, supports and fabricated structures.

  • Engineering and Fabrication: Precision-cut components for bespoke projects.
