Low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 equivalent material steel plate

Low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 is considered the "working horse" class and is widely used in in structural applications, heavy construction equipment, building structures, heavy anchoring systems, truck frames, and applications requiring high strength/weight ratios. Low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 is usually produced into steel plates, Channel steel and heavy steel beams.

Low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 equivalent material such as EN S355J2-steel_4448.html target=_blank class=infotextkey>S355JR, DIN ST52-3, JIS SM490B, GB Q345B has much in common with steel ASTM A572 Gr 50.

Among low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 equivalent material, EN S355JR is most widely used in the structural engineering and construction industries. JIS SM490B is also popular mainly in Asia. With the expanding of International business of China, the GB Q345B also spread into the globle construction site and known to many steel insiders. Origioned in Germany, DIN ST52-3 steel is also known to engineers. But its production is less popular now. In China, BBN steel is one of the steel mills that can supply full range of the low alloy steel ASTM A572 Gr 50 equivalent material.
