Motor Mounting Plates, Compressor Platforms, Pump Foundations, Grout Plate - Sole Plates


ASTM A36, 1020, and HR Plate manufactured to order  to meet the demands for large machinery installations. Suitable for some inside applications, most of these base plates are used to support heavy equipment such as compressors, generators, motors, and pumps outdoors. These steel mounting plates are installed underneath machines located at utility distribution sites as well as alongside industrial buildings.  

Gas Pipeline Compressor Pads
Pump Platforms
Power Generator Foundations
Motor Bases


Utility industry demands:

Gas transmission and distribution
Water mainline distribution facilities
Power distribution sub-stations
Cable TV, Telephone and Telecom Pedastals



Our specialty is to manufacture large, flat, parallel and square plate products, Blanchard or Precision Surface Ground, and machined to specifications. We are your "One-Stop Shop" for custom steel plate. Please, call us at 1-888-WE-GRIND with your next custom steel plate requirements.

Machine Mounting Plates
Examples of Sole Plates include: Motor Mounting plates, Compressor pads, Grout plates, Generator bases, Pump Foundations, Meter Equipment bases, and Control Tower steel pads.
Pre-drilled and machined to manufacture specified hole locations,  sole plates are used to mount motors, gas compressors, pumps, generators, utility control towers, and other types of machinery for natural gas pipeline distribution & long-distance transmission stations, telecommunication relay and transmission sites, water distribution locations, and power generation plants & transmission sub-stations.
 
Custom machined, steel mounting plates, those made especially for mounting a specific piece of machinery within a fenced-in and protected utility distribution sub-station, save field labor installation time, provide structural above the ground support, and help to ensure protection against theft.

Structural Engineers specify machine base plates for longevity and for structural integrity, limiting internal machine failures as compared to allowing critical tolerance machines to sit upon simple concrete foundations.
 
Do you need special sized mounting bolts with these plates?
Any size, made to order.

Do you require coatings applied for field storage? Paint?

These mounting plates are now being used to support outside equipment off the ground at most new industrial building sites.

Whatever your requirements, our Steel Fabrication, Assembly, and Sales Departments will help you find the right solution at the right price.
