There are many types of steel plates on the market, and different industries have different steel needs. Low alloy steel plate is a general term for steel plates with an alloy content of less than 3.5%, also called Q345B plates. It is widely used in shipbuilding, vehicles, boilers, bridges, high-pressure vessels, oil and gas pipelines, large steel structures and many other fields. Next, Huamao Steel will introduce to you what a real low alloy plate is!
The main components of low alloy plate:
1. Add alloying elements mainly manganese;
2. Add additional elements such as niobium, titanium or vanadium;
3. Add a small amount of copper, phosphorus and other elements to improve corrosion resistance
Product characteristics of low alloy plates:
1. High strength. The general yield strength is above 300MPa;
2. Strong toughness. Elongation is between 15% and 20%;
3. Has good weldability and cold forming properties;
4. Resistant to low temperature and corrosion.
Low-alloy steel plates have better stability in application. Huamao Steel reminds steel-using enterprises to recognize the manufacturer and brand clearly when purchasing. Products of different brands also vary greatly in price and quality. Another very important point is the delivery time and channels. Some companies promise to have certain types of steel, but the supply is insufficient, which will cause delivery delays and affect project construction. Ask questions before making payment, and be sure to sign a contract.
