High strength ASTM A588 steel plate standard for weather resistant

High strength ASTM A588 steel plate standard for weather resistant

The ASTM A588 steel plate is suitable for many unpainted situations. Compared with A36 and A572 Gr.50 carbon steel with or without copper, ASTM A588 steel plate has better atmospheric corrosion resistance when properly exposed to the atmosphere.
