Industrial Brushed Steel Riveted Plate Material

This industrial brushed steel riveted plate material for Substance 3D provides a high-fidelity, tileable PBR surface for metal. The material features a clean, industrial aesthetic defined by a grid of rectangular steel plates, each secured with visible rivets at the corners. The surface exhibits a brushed metal finish, providing authentic light scattering and metallic reflectivity. The procedural nature of the graph ensures that the panel pattern and the subtle weathering details remain consistent across large surfaces without visible seams or repetitive tiling artefacts. This shader is designed to simulate heavy-duty steel cladding, making it suitable for both architectural detailing and mechanical asset texturing where a robust, high-quality metallic finish is required.

The download is a 236 KB file containing a Substance (.sbsar) material that opens in Substance 3D Player, Sampler and Painter and in renderers with Substance support.

As a native.sbsar file, this material integrates directly into Substance 3D Painter or Designer, allowing for real-time parameter adjustments such as wear, rust levels, or rivet density. Users can drag and drop the file into their project shelf, applying it to geometry via UV mapping. The procedural graph automatically generates the necessary PBR maps—including base colour, roughness, metallic, and normal—ensuring high-quality results across various lighting environments and render engines.

This material is ideal for industrial design, architectural visualisation of high-tech infrastructure, or detailing heavy machinery and storage containers. It pairs effectively with concrete, exposed piping, or structural steel beams in warehouse, factory, or urban landscape projects. Professionals can use this asset to rapidly populate scene elements like cladding, flooring, or industrial furniture where a durable, riveted metal look is essential. Its tileable nature makes it efficient for covering expansive surfaces in large-scale building models without compromising performance or visual fidelity.
