ASME SA572 Grade 50 is the ASME standard version of ASTM A572 Grade 50 high strength low alloy steel plate. It retains 50 ksi minimum yield strength and all core mechanical characteristics, while complying with ASME material acceptance specifications. For infrastructure and mechanical projects following ASME codes, SA572 Grade 50 is the specified material grade.
The high strength-to-weight ratio allows structural optimization to reduce dead load of buildings and equipment. SA572 Grade 50 offers outstanding fatigue resistance for components subjected to repeated dynamic loads such as lifting equipment and transport vehicle frames. It adapts to hot rolling, cold forming and all common welding processes.
Typical applications include ASME-standard industrial building steel frames, port machinery, bridge supporting components, heavy truck frames and offshore auxiliary structures. Many international contractors prefer SA572 Grade 50 for bidding documents requiring ASME material certification. We supply fully certified SA572 Grade 50 plates with fast delivery.
