ASTM A537 Class 1 carbon steel plates are engineered to be used in pressure vessel

applications.

The material is a normalised steel which is heat treated and as a consequence displays greater
yield and tensile strength than the more standard ASTM A516 grades. The steel is ideal for use
in pressurised service both in boilers and pressure vessels and Aesteiron Steels LLP supplies
A537 Class 1 plates to the world's leading fabricators who in turn serve the Oil, Gas and
Petrochemical industry.

We can supply ASTM A537 Class 1 plates from stock or directly from the mill. We also offer an
in house profiling service where the material can be cut to the size or shape you require.

Class 2 carbon steel plates

ASTM A537 Class 2 steel is a higher yield and tensile strength material used in the fabrication of
pressurised vessels and steel boilers.

The steel includes the alloying of carbon, manganese and silicon and is heat treated using the
quenched and tempered method which gives the material its residual strength. Sourced by the
world's leading fabricators, ASTM A537 Class 2 is a material used extensively by the oil, gas
and petrochemical industry.

Aesteiron Steels LLP can supply ASTM A537 Class 2 plates from stock or directly from the
mill. We also offer steel cutting services including CAD based flame cutting to cut your steel
into particular shapes.

ASTM A36 steel plate, A36 steel plate, under ASTM standard, we can regard A36 steel plate as
Carbon and low alloy steel
A36 steel plate is one mainly of Carbon and low alloy steel, ASTM A36 steel is a widely
accepted general purpose structural quality steel offering a constant 36 ksi min. yield point for all
thicknesses of material. It is widely used in the construction of buildings, bridges and other
structures by means of welding, bolting orriveting. This steel is useful because of its wide
availability
