How to improve toughness of a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel

The company is a leading steel production and exporting group in steel materials with advanced production technology, metal-cutting skill, and steel structures engineering projects. We can supply carbon steel plate and sheet, alloy steel plates and structural a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel steel plates. These hot rolled steel plates are sturdy plates having high quality. Their imperviousness to effect and scrapped area, weld capacity, and workability make them a worthy product in a variety of industries.

45Mn2 steel is added with manganese on the basis of No. 45 steel. After quenching and high temperature tempering, 45Mn2 steel can obtain high strength and good toughness, that is, it has good comprehensive mechanical properties, and is often used in manufacturing larger load shafts, connecting rods, fasteners, etc. The price of 45Mn2 steel is higher than that of No. 45 steel, a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel. And the performance of 45Mn2 steel after heat treatment is better. 45Mn2 steel can be used as parts under higher stress and wear conditions, such as universal joint shaft, axle, connecting rod cover, friction plate, etc. The performance of 45Mn2 steel after heat treatment is better than No. 45 steel and worse than 40Cr steel.

The mechanical properties of 30CrMo steel are as follows: tensile strength 930 MPa, yield strength 785 MPa, elongation after fracture 12%, impact absorption energy 63 J. a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel, 30CrMo steel has high strength and toughness. When the temperature is lower than 500℃, 30CrMo steel has good high-temperature strength, good machinability, medium cold bending plasticity, high hardenability and good welding performance. 30CrMo steel is generally used in quenched and tempered condition.

Composition characteristics of low alloy structural steel, a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel: (1) Low carbon: the carbon content of low alloy structural steel is less than 0.20% due to the high requirements of toughness, weldability and cold formability. (2) The alloy elements such as manganese are added. (3) The addition of Nb, Ti or V and other auxiliary elements: a small amount of Nb, Ti or V forms fine carbides or carbonitrides in the steel, which is beneficial to obtain fine ferrite grains and improve the strength and toughness of low alloy structural steel. In addition, adding a small amount of copper (≤ 0.4%) and phosphorus (about 0.1%) can improve the corrosion resistance. The addition of a small amount of rare earth elements can remove sulfur and gas, purify the steel, and improve the toughness and process performance of low alloy structural steel.

There are a lot of ASTM standards for pressure vessel steel plates. Such as ASTM A204, A285, A302, A387, A515, A516, A517, A537, A612, A841, etc. Those ASTM steel plates have different thickness ranges. a537 class 1 bridge weathering steel, ASTM A204 plates shall not thicker than 150mm. ASTM A285 plates shall not thicker than 50mm. ASTM A515 plates shall not thicker than 200mm. ASTM A517 plates and A537 plates shall not thicker than 150mm. ASTM A612 plates shall not thicker than 25mm. ASTM A841 plates shall not thicker than 100mm.
