STEEL PLATE
! HOME > Processing Technoloy > Steel standard

" ASTM A36 Carbon Structural Steel Plate：

ASTM A36 steel plate is the most widely used hot-rolled

steel product. As a kind of carbon structural steel
product, its relative products are round rod steel, angle
bar, and steel sections such as I-Beams, H-beams,
angles, and channels. Hot rolled ASTM A36 has rough
surface on the final product, it’s easy for further
processing like machining.

ASTM A36 steel can be manufactured into various

structural steel parts, it is vastly used in many different
industries for a variety of applications, why choose ASTM
A36? It provide good mechanical property and cost less.
For example, it is also used in many bridge construction.
Buildings are frequently constructed with A36 steel
because of its high strength and toughness. Further
more, ASTM A36 steel is also used in fields of
automotive, construction, heavy equipment, and oil and
gas industries.

" Application of ASTM A36:

tural Steel Plate Application fields

ng plates tanks bins bearing plates forgings

ockets jigs rings templates fixtures

Plate Fabrication Options

chining welding cold bending mild hot forming punching

" Chemical Composition

analyze:
ASTM A36 belongs to general low carbon steel, steel
product with low carbon content less than 0.3%，it is
considerably soft for easy forming, machining, welding.
Heat treatment has less effect on ASTM A36 steel
material. It contains some other elements including alloy
element: manganese, sulfur, phosphorus and silicon. Iron
and these elements together forms unique mechanical
property of ASTM A36, unlike stainless steel with nickel
and chromium element, it doesn’t show good corrosion
resistance. If you need corrosion resistant property,
having it painted with a layer of plating is a good choice.

" Physical Property Analyze:

Qualified A36 steel product shall have ultimate tensile
strengths ranges from 58,000 to 79,800 psi. It is not a
exact number for it is affected by its chemical
composition and production method. In tensile testing,
ASTM A36 steel bar can elongate to around 20% of its
original length. It also shows excellent impact strength at
room temperature.
