A36 Carbon Steel Plate, Sheet & Bar

A36 is one of the most versatile and widely used carbon steel grades in the construction and manufacturing industries. Known for its excellent balance of strength, weldability, and formability, A36 steel is the go-to material for structural components, machinery frames, and general fabrication projects. It offers reliable performance in both atmospheric and indoor environments, making it a cost-effective solution for a wide range of engineering needs.

Key Features

• High Tensile Strength: Minimum yield strength of 250 MPa (36 ksi), ensuring robust structural integrity.
• Excellent Weldability: Low carbon content facilitates easy welding, cutting, and machining without extensive pre-heating.
• Formability: Available in hot-rolled and cold-rolled forms including plates, sheets, bars, angles, and pipes.
• Standard Compliance: Supplied to ASTM A36 and EN 10025 standards, ensuring consistent quality and safety.

Applications

A36 carbon steel is extensively used in building construction, bridges, shipbuilding, rail transport, and the manufacturing of heavy machinery. Its durability and ease of fabrication make it suitable for both structural support elements and non-structural components in industrial settings.
