With over 18 million pounds of stainless and nickel alloy plate available, covering 45 grades and 35 thicknesses, we can satisfy your most demanding and hard-to-find requirements.

Since this is our only business, we stock more than just the standard 304, 304L, and 316L plate that you’ll find at most service centers. We offer a complete line of heat resisting and corrosion resisting grades in the 300 series. We also stock a full line of duplex stainless grades, as well as 410 and 17-4PH.

History

Sandmeyer Steel Company was founded in 1952 by the late Paul C. Sandmeyer. We have been family owned and operated since our inception. Upon Paul Sandmeyer's untimely death in 1969, his son, Ronald P. Sandmeyer, assumed the responsibilities of President. He, along with Paul L. von Zech as Executive Vice President, continued to build upon Paul Sandmeyer's foundation. We became a third generation family business in the early 1980's when Ron Sandmeyer's sons, Ron Sandmeyer, Jr., and Rodney C. Sandmeyer, joined the team. On October 9, 1997, Ron Sandmeyer, Jr., was elected President and Chief Executive Officer, succeeding his father, who continues to serve as Chairman of the Board. Rod was elected Executive Vice President, replacing Paul von Zech, who then held the position of Vice Chairman of the Board until his death in June 2008.

We moved to our present location in far northeast Philadelphia in 1963 and have expanded at this site by acquiring several adjacent properties through the years. Today, these facilities consist of over 20 acres with over 150,000 square feet under roof.

From Paul Sandmeyer's vision, with the help of many dedicated and loyal employees along the way, Sandmeyer Steel Company - still family owned and managed - has been making stainless steel plate and nickel alloy plate products for over 60 years.
