Mild Steel Centering Sheet

A Mild Steel Centering Sheet is a temporary formwork component used in construction to support concrete slabs, beams, and other horizontal structural elements until the concrete gains sufficient strength. These sheets are fabricated from high-quality mild steel plates and are widely used for shuttering due to their durability, strength, and reusability. They ensure uniform slab thickness and smooth surface finishes, making them essential in modern construction works.
