The Benefits of Carbon Steel Plates

Carbon steel plates are a cornerstone in the construction and manufacturing industries due to their versatility and numerous advantages. Here’s why many professionals choose carbon steel plates for their projects:

• Strength and Durability: Carbon steel is known for its robustness, essential for structures that must endure heavy loads and adverse conditions, ensuring longevity and reliability.
• Weldability and Formability: This material is easy to work with, allowing it to be welded, cut, and molded while maintaining structural integrity, which is ideal for complex constructions and custom fabrications.
• Cost-Effectiveness: Carbon steel is more economical than materials like stainless steel or aluminum, offering a cost-efficient solution without compromising on quality, making it suitable for budget-conscious projects.
• Versatility: Available in various grades, carbon steel plate can meet specific performance criteria, including weldability and ease of machining, catering to diverse project requirements.
• Compatibility with Modern Fabrication Techniques: Carbon steel plates work well with advanced manufacturing processes like CNC machining and robotic welding, allowing for precision in construction and innovation in design.

Our Carbon Steel Plate Grade Selection

Our carbon steel plates come in several grades for your project’s needs. Choose from our available selection of carbon steel plate grades:

• A36 Carbon Plate: Renowned for its structural qualities, the A36 offers a tensile strength of 58-80 KSI and a minimum yield strength of 36 KSI. This grade is ideal for a wide range of applications due to its robust composition.
• A572 GR50 Carbon Plate: Known for its high strength and low alloy composition (HSLA), the A572 GR50 delivers a minimum tensile strength of 65 KSI and a minimum yield strength of 50 KSI, making it suitable for projects in construction to structural applications.
• S235 Carbon Plate: This weldable low-carbon steel with a minimum yield strength of 235 N/mm² is suited for fabricating brackets, machine guards, and structural components with moderate load requirements.
• S355 Carbon Plate: With a minimum yield strength of 355 N/mm², the (HSLA) S355 is perfect for heavy-duty environments such as bridge construction and structural components requiring superior integrity.
• S355MC Carbon Plate: Offering excellent weldability and machinability along with its formable properties, S355MC is excellent for various applications that demand both strength and workability.
• S700MC Carbon Plate: For the most demanding applications, the S700MC provides a high yield strength at a minimum of 700 N/mm², ideal for structures that require formability, exceptional strength and durability.
• 4140/42CrMo4 Carbon Plate: This grade features high tensile strength and toughness, commonly used in abrasion, impact and high-strength applications in aerospace and automotive industries.
