A588 Carbon Steel Plate

ASTM A588 steel is classified into Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class K. The ASTM A588 steel specification is based on the standard specification for high-strength low-alloy structural steel with a lower yield point of up to 50ksi for applications requiring high strength and corrosion resistance.

PRODUCT DETAILS

A588 Carbon Steel Plate Description

A588 carbon steel plate has been specially treated to show good corrosion resistance. It can resist corrosion from the atmosphere, sea water, salt spray and other environments, thus extending its service life. For another, A588 carbon steel plate is made of high-strength steel and has high yield strength and tensile strength, which can meet the requirements of various structural parts. The plate also has good welding performance, is easy to weld and process, and therefore improves the efficiency of engineering installation. A588 carbon steel plates are suitable for various structural parts that require corrosion resistance and high strength, such as bridges, buildings, ships, vehicles, etc.

Scope of Application

ASTM A588 steel is known for its weather resistance. When exposed to external conditions, its corrosion resistance becomes stronger even if it is not painted. ASTM A588 steel has four times the corrosion resistance of carbon steel. The application of ASTM A588 steel is very wide. In addition to its typical application in welded bridges and buildings, this specification is also widely used in railway passenger cars; including transmission towers and telephone towers, trucks, bridges and gusset plates, and housing shells. ASTM A588 steel also maintains a good strength-to-weight ratio, meeting the high strength requirements of carbon steel with less weight.
