Steel end plates are flat plates fixed at the end of a beam, column, or steel member to create a strong connection point. In Kenya, end plates are widely used in structural steel fabrication for portal frames, mezzanines, warehouses, and general building steelwork.
An end plate connection makes erection faster and more accurate. That is because the plate provides a clear bolting face, and it helps align members during installation. In addition, end plates allow you to design clean joints with predictable strength when you match plate thickness, bolt size, and weld type to the load.
When customers search end plates in Kenya, they often want custom fabrication. Typical requests include drilling bolt holes, cutting to size, and preparing edges for welding. You can also supply end plates with different thickness options depending on the connection design.
For best results, confirm the plate grade, thickness, hole layout, and surface finish. If the connection will be exposed to weather, protective coating or galvanizing can improve durability. With correct detailing and neat workmanship, steel end plates create strong and professional structural connections. Steel & prefabs ltd
