Grade astm a242 vs a588 ASME equivalent steel

Based on the astm a242 vs a588 steel trade, the company mainly deals in Baosteel products: color coating, zinc plating, fingerprint resistance, cold rolling, hot rolling, pickling, electrical steel and other products, and can order the futures of the company's products on behalf of manufacturers. It has established cooperative relations with more than 2000 foreign customers. At the same time, it also operates a variety of products of related iron and steel enterprises. Annual sales of astm a242 vs a588 steel 3.6 million tons, standing stock of 400000 tons, has developed more than 10000 users. The company has a first-class marketing service system, strong storage and transportation capacity and supporting supply, cutting distribution capacity, and gradually build it into an important marketing channel.

ASTM A242 is a kind of high strength low alloy steel with good atmospheric corrosion resistance. Some applications show that it astm a242 vs a588 has better corrosion resistance than ASTM A36 steel plate and ASTM a572 50 steel plate. Like weathering steel, it can be used without painting, and corrosion naturally stops and becomes a protective layer.

Ordinary medium and thick steel plate astm a242 vs a588 is a kind of deoxidized steel. The oxygen content of the steel liquid is relatively high, and a lot of gas will be produced during the production process to make the steel liquid boil, so it is also called boiling steel. Advantages: this kind of steel plate has smooth surface, good quality and easy processing. Because this kind of steel plate has no concentrated shrinkage cavity, the amount of deoxidizer is very small and the price is lower than other steel plates.

The main raw material of astm a242 vs a588, hot rolling coil is billet. After heating the billet, the strip made from the coarse and fine rolling mill is cooled to a certain temperature by specific cooling, and then the cooled steel strip is made into rolled steel strip by coiler. But generally, according to the buyer's demand, the manufacturer can further process the cooled steel strip into steel plate or flat coil and other products.

The yield strength of astm a242 vs a588, Q235 steel plate decreases with the increase of thickness. Q235 steel plate thickness≤16mm, yield strength is 235MPA; 16mm < Q235 steel plate thickness≤40mm, yield strength is 225MPA; 40mm < Q235 steel plate thickness≤60mm, yield strength is 215MPA; 60mm < Q235 steel plate thickness≤100mm, yield strength is 205MPA; 100mm < Q235 steel plate thickness≤150mm, yield strength is 195MPA; 150mm < Q235 steel plate thickness≤200mm, yield strength is 185MPA.
