A36 Carbon Steel Plate is a structural quality steel plate that adheres to the ASTM A36 standard established by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). This widely used steel grade offers good formability, weldability, and mechanical properties.
Ingredients:
Carbon Steel: The primary composition of A36 Carbon Steel Plate consists mainly of iron with a carbon content not exceeding 0.29%. It also includes:
- Manganese: Present in amounts up to around 1.0%, which enhances strength and hardness.
- Silicon and Phosphorus: Typically less than 0.4% each, these elements contribute to strength but are limited to ensure good weldability and ductility.
- Sulfur: Found in trace amounts, controlled to prevent brittleness.
Uses:
- Structural Applications: A36 plates are extensively used in the construction industry for beams, columns, bridges, building frames, and other structural components due to their high tensile strength and yield strength.
- Welded Fabrication: Their excellent welding characteristics make them suitable for fabrication into large structures such as storage tanks, pressure vessels, and shipbuilding components.
- Machine Parts: For general-purpose machine parts like baseplates, brackets, and supports where moderate strength and toughness are required.
- Steel Plates for Cutting and Shaping: Due to its machinability, A36 steel plates can be cut and formed into various shapes for customized applications.
In summary, A36 Carbon Steel Plates are versatile materials that provide an optimal blend of affordability, formability, and mechanical performance. They're commonly employed across numerous industries for a wide range of structural and manufacturing purposes where durability and cost-effectiveness are critical factors.
