Technical Profile

Aero Enterprises supplies secondary HR sheets (also called second quality or off-grade MS sheets) in Mumbai at 15-20% discount versus prime material. Secondary hot rolled sheets have minor cosmetic imperfections - slight surface rust, edge irregularities, small dimensional variations - but maintain full structural strength and weldability per IS 2062 standards. Located in Vasai East, we stock thicknesses from 2mm to 10mm in standard 8x4 ft size, ideal for budget-conscious projects: warehouse sheds, temporary structures, agricultural buildings, workshop fabrication, internal frameworks, storage racks, and applications where perfect surface appearance is not critical. Same-day dispatch for Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane with transparent quality disclosure.

15-20% cheaper than prime HR - same strength, minor cosmetic imperfections.

What are Secondary HR Sheets?

Secondary HR sheets (also called second quality, off-grade, or commercial seconds) are hot rolled steel sheets that don't meet prime/first quality visual standards due to minor cosmetic defects acquired during manufacturing, handling, or storage. Common imperfections include: surface rust (easily removable), slight edge damage, small dents or scratches, minor dimensional variations (±2-3mm vs standard tolerance), irregular cut edges, or storage marks. Importantly, secondary sheets maintain the same chemical composition, tensile strength, and structural integrity as prime material - they simply fail cosmetic inspection criteria. Steel mills and distributors sell secondary material at 15-20% discount to clear inventory. For applications where the sheet will be painted, buried, used internally, or where surface appearance doesn't matter, secondary HR sheets offer identical performance at significant cost savings.

Technical Q&A

Verified Procurement Intelligence

What exactly is wrong with secondary HR sheets?
Secondary HR sheets have cosmetic imperfections like surface rust, scratches, edge irregularities, or dimensional variations (±2-3mm). They maintain full structural strength and weldability - same IS 2062 grade as prime material. The defects are visual only and don't affect load-bearing capacity or welding performance.
How much can I save with secondary HR sheets?
Secondary HR sheets cost 15-20% less than prime material. For example: 3mm prime = ₹4,100/sheet, secondary = ₹3,350/sheet (saving ₹750 per sheet). On a 100-sheet order, that's ₹75,000 savings - significant for budget projects.
Can secondary HR sheets be welded?
Yes, secondary HR sheets weld exactly like prime material. Surface rust should be cleaned at weld joints (standard practice even with prime HR). The base metal quality and weldability are identical to first-quality HR sheets.
Are secondary sheets safe for structural use?
For non-critical structures like sheds, racks, and temporary buildings - yes, they're safe as they maintain IS 2062 strength. For certified structural applications requiring engineer approval and mill test certificates, use prime material with proper documentation.
Can I see the material before buying?
Yes! We encourage site visits to inspect material in Vasai. For orders over 500kg, we provide photos of actual stock. We're transparent about defects - what you see is what you get. No surprises on delivery.
What thicknesses are available in secondary quality?
We typically stock 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 8mm, 10mm in secondary grade, but availability fluctuates based on mill supply. Contact us for current stock list with photos of available material.
Can secondary sheets be painted or powder-coated?
Yes, secondary sheets are excellent for painting. Surface rust can be removed with wire brush or light grinding. Once painted, you can't tell the difference from prime material. Many furniture and equipment manufacturers use secondary for painted applications to save costs.
Do you deliver secondary HR sheets in Navi Mumbai?
Yes, we deliver across Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane. Same-day dispatch for Vasai-Virar region. For bulk orders, we recommend visiting our yard to inspect material before delivery, or we can send stock photos via WhatsApp.
What if the material is worse than described?
We accept returns if material condition is misrepresented (e.g., we said 'light rust' but delivered heavily corroded sheets). However, for disclosed defects, material is sold as-is. We're honest about condition to avoid disputes - transparency is our policy.
Is there a minimum order quantity?
No minimum for local pickup in Vasai. For delivery in Mumbai, minimum 5 sheets or 300kg to make transportation economical. We recommend first-time buyers start with small test order (2-3 sheets) to verify quality meets expectations.
