Commodity name: ASTM A36 steel

Product introduction
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.
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.

1. Automobile industry

Stainless steel plate not only has high corrosion resistance, but also has light weight, which is very important in automobile manufacturing. A large number of stainless steel plates are required for the manufacturing of automobile shells, and many international famous cars are now beginning to use stainless steel plates as the structural materials of automobiles. Even in high-speed railway, subway and other aspects, stainless steel plate is also widely used.

2. Water storage and transportation

Water has high requirements on the environment during storage. Stainless steel plate can effectively ensure the water quality is not polluted when used for water storage. Stainless steel plate is also recognized as a safe, hygienic and efficient water storage material in the world. Stainless steel plate will also be an indispensable material for water storage equipment in the future.

3. Construction industry

In fact, stainless steel plates were first used in the construction industry, and then gradually introduced into more fields. Decorative panels on the exterior walls of buildings are generally made of stainless steel plates, which are durable and beautiful.

In a word, stainless steel plates are widely used. In addition to the above, stainless steel plates can also be seen in the household appliance manufacturing industry. I hope you can have a more comprehensive understanding of stainless steel plate after reading this article. More wonderful content, remember to pay attention to TISCO stainless steel!
