A588 Grade A marking material vs weathering steel

According to South Korea newsis reported on March 12, Korea iron and steel association statistics show that in February, South Korea's domestic A588 Grade A marking steel exports to 2.44 million tons, down 2.4 percent year on year, after January down 3 percent, the second consecutive month of decline. In the past three years, South Korea's steel exports have decreased year by year, from 31.67 million tons in 2017 to 30.44 million tons in 2018 and 30.38 million tons in 2019. Instead, South Korea's A588 Grade A marking steel imports increased last year. As China's economy slows and steel prices fall, Chinese steel is pouring into South Korea, analysts say.

The shipping department of the company arranges shipping booking for customers' goods in advance, and makes good matching with inland transportation. Effectively manage and follow up the customer's shipping schedule and give feedback to customers in time. At the same time, the shipping department has a keen insight into the shipping market in different periods to reduce the transportation cost for the company and customers.

Q345E steel plate is a low-alloy high-strength steel plate with good low-temperature impact performance. The steel grade is composed of three parts: Q (Qufu in Chinese spelling) representing yield strength, yield strength value, and quality grade symbol. A588 Grade A marking, Among them: Q represents the yield strength; 345 represents the yield strength value, unit MPa; E represents the grade (passed -40 degrees impact test).

The Peru customer has cooperated with us since April 2015, and then they purchased 300 tons A36 mild steel plates as trial order. Since then, they book more than 1000 tons from us every time, and about two times every year. They asked SGS test every time. Through our cooperation those years, we have built very good relationship and they entrust us to buy other related A588 Grade A marking products for them from China also. And they have introduced us good customers in Peru, among which there are also governmental projects. It is a win-win cooperation between us.

Chemical composition of 12Cr1MoV alloy steel plate: Carbon C: 0.08-0.15; Silicon Si: 0.17-0.37; Manganese Mn: 0.40-0.70; Sulfur S: allowable residual content ≤ 0.035; Phosphorus P: allowable residual content ≤ 0.035; Chromium Cr: 0.90-1.20; Nickel Ni: allowable residual content ≤ 0.030; Cu: allowable residual content ≤ 0.030; V: 0.15-0.30; Mo: 0.25-0.30.Delivery status of A588 Grade A marking, 12Cr1MoV alloy steel plate: delivered in heat treatment (normalizing, annealing or high temperature tempering) or non heat treatment status, and the delivery status shall be indicated in the contract.

The chromium plays an important role in A588 Grade A marking, Chromium Molybdenum steel. The chromium can form a dense oxide film with strong adhesion on the surface of the steel plate, so as to prevent the internal metal from further oxidation or corrosion. The higher the chromium content in the steel plate, the denser the oxide film, and the better the oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance of the steel plate.
