Cladded plate is a composite steel plate produced by bonding any cladding material (like stainless steel) plate to one side or both sides of a carbon steel or low. Hence a clad steel plate not only has adequate strength expected of structural materials (base metal) but also has other features like resistance to heat and corrosion (cladding material) and is more cost-effective then using similar products made entirely of the cladding material.
Bokadia Steel cladded plates are used in a range of industries including construction, ship building and manufacturing of heavy-duty tanks. Explosion cladding is a process wherein a cladding plate is positioned over the backer plate with a small gap. Specially made explosives are spread on tap of the cladding plate.
On detonation the cladding plate is accelerated towards the backer plate and collides with it at a high velocity. This collision takes place progressively from one end of the plate to the other In micro seconds.
