Carbon steel plates can be categorized based on various factors such as composition, properties, and applications. Here are some common categories of carbon steel plates:
Low Carbon Steel Plate: Contains less than 0.3% carbon. It's easily shaped and formed, with good weldability. Examples include ASTM A36.
Medium Carbon Steel Plate: Contains 0.3% to 0.6% carbon. It offers good strength and hardness. Examples include ASTM A516.
High Carbon Steel Plate: Contains more than 0.6% carbon. Known for high strength, hardness, and wear resistance. Examples include AISI 1045.
Structural Steel Plate: Used in construction and structural applications. Common grades include ASTM A36, A572, and A588.
Pressure Vessel Quality Steel Plate: Used for applications requiring high pressure and elevated temperatures, such as boilers and storage tanks. Examples include ASTM A516 and A537.
Abrasion Resistant Steel Plate: Designed to withstand wear and abrasion. Common grades include AR400 and AR500.
Armor Plate: Provides ballistic protection. Common grade is MIL-A-46100.
Offshore and Marine Steel Plate: Designed for use in offshore and marine environments, offering corrosion resistance and high strength. Examples include ABS Grade A/B/D/E.
Boiler Quality Steel Plate: Specifically designed for boiler and pressure vessel applications. Common grades include SA 516 Gr 60/70 and P355GH.
Weathering Steel Plate: Offers enhanced weather resistance. Common grades include COR-TEN A and B.
These categories help in selecting the appropriate carbon steel plate based on the specific requirements of the application in terms of strength, toughness, corrosion resistance, and other properties.
