Hi Guys, good day to you.

Check for any suffix on your dimension styles... just in case:

I found one spot on Google that suggests it could mean "Plate" in terms of Allowable Stress.

Hi! It does not seem like a standard abbreviation. It can mean many things. For example, I have seen it means "Plaster (wall covering)." It is better to check with the designer who made the drawing.

Many thanks!

Maybe Parting Line for an injection molded part?
