We shall explain material specifications from chemicals and mechanical properties. Although,contact us for ASTM A36 standard specification in PDF, we shall send you immediately.

Chemical composition of A36 steel plate

It consists of carbon (C) content 0.25 – 0.29%, Copper (Cu) content 0.20%, Iron (Fe) content 98.0 percentage, Manganese (Mn) content 1.03 percentage, Phosphorus (P) content 0.04 percentage, Silicon (Si) content 0.280 percentage and Sulfur (S) content 0.050 percentage. With excellent properties, this steel plate can be bolted, riveted and welded in the construction of buildings, bridges, and buildings and for any general structural purposes.

A36 Steel Equivalent materials

ASTM A36 is said to be same as EN S275 steel plate. A36 steel is a very low carbon steel that blends great strength with form ability. It can be safely welded with minimum caution. This structural steel plate can be galvanized to give enhanced corrosion resistance which ensures superior quality.

Yield Strength and Tensile Strength

Its mechanical properties include tensile Strength ksi of 58-80 (400-550 Mpa) and minimum Yield strength 36 ksi (250 Mpa).
Elongation in 8 in min 20%, in 2 inch min 23% for steel plates and bars. For shapes and parts is 20% and 21% correspondingly.

The mechanical properties of this steel can be changed or altered through different heating treatments.
