Corten Steel ASTM A588 Grade A Plate & Sheet

ASTM A588 GR.A Plates Manufacturer & Supplier

Corten Steel Tube is the leading manufacturer of ASTM A588 GR.A Plates. They are plates of A grade which are made from the ASTM material. We make this product available in a number of shapes, sizes, grades, and specifications. This product is the steel plate which is made of the specification known as ASTM A588. They are known for their high strength as well as lower composition of alloy throughout its structure. This is the core reason for them being used so widely.

They have a large number of properties such as elongation properties and also it has a very high yield strength as well as tensile strength. It also provides a high resistance against the stress related corrosion and is excellent in preventing the corrosion cracking and the pitting. It has an excellent corrosion resistance and it can prevent a number of corrosion related problems such as oxidation, toxic gasses, reduction, and reactive chemicals as well. It is equipped with the capability of preventing these efficiently.

ASTM A588 is also excellent in terms of resisting the enormous temperatures and large amount of heat environments as well. They are excellent when it comes to weldability as well as machine ability. They are excellent for joining as well as bending purposes. They are very tough and have a highly rigid structure. They are very much durable and can handle even the harshest conditions. They are highly ductile and can be easily drawn in the form of wires to extend its capabilities even further. It is designed in a number of dimensions as well as varying thickness. It is ideal for operations that take place in the most hostile environments. They are also usable in bare conditions as well that makes it an excellent product in the industry.

It can be used in a number of varying weather conditions as well. ASTM A588 GR.A Plates are available in different forms of weathering steel plates such as hot rolled, cold rolled, normalized, and even tempering as well. We make these products available in all these different forms. We also conduct various tests on our products such as destructive and non-destructive tests like firmness test, impact analysis, etc.

What is ASTM A588 grade A equivalent to?

International standards for structural steel equivalent to ASTM A588 grade a are:

  • EN 10025-5: S355J0WP
  • JIS G3125: SPA-H
  • BS 4360: WR 50 A
  • ISO 4952: Fe 355 W

These standards have similar mechanical properties to that of ASTM A588 GR A coil. You can consult experienced professionals from Corten Steel Tube, to know which equivalent grade is suitable for your project.

ASTM A588 grade A vs B

  • Astm a588 gr a sheet material has a slightly different chemical composition than grade b.  The latter has higher copper and chromium levels.
  • Due to the compositional difference, grade b shows more resistance to corrosion than gr a.
  • Grade B has higher alloy content and hence might require added precautions during welding.

As a leading stockist, we offer ASTM A588 Grade A weathering steel plates in Mumbai at competitive prices and with fast delivery.
