Carbon steel is essentially iron with varying levels of carbon as the main alloying element. Carbon steel is one of the most widely used manufacturing materials due to its formability, weldability, strength, and ability to be heat treated to precisely modify its mechanical properties. Apart from carbon, an extra amount of manganese is also included in most alloys. Sulfur and phosphorus are also present however these are typically undesired and seen as impurities.
carbon Steel plate
The steel type of the thick steel plate is generally the same as the thin steel sheet. In all aspects of products, in addition to bridge steel plate, boiler steel plate, automobile manufacturing steel plate, pressure vessel steel plate and multi-layer high pressure container steel plate are pure thick plate, some varieties of steel plate such as automobile girder steel plate (2.5~10 mm thick), pattern steel plate (2.5~8 mm thick), stainless steel plate, heat resistant steel plate and other varieties are the same thin plate.
In addition, the steel plate and material said, not all the steel plates are the same, the material is different, its steel plate used to the place, is not the same.
Classification of steel plates including strip:
1, by thickness: (1) sheet, thickness not more than 3mm(electrical steel plate) (2) Medium plate, thickness of 4-20mm(3) plate, thickness of 20-60mm(4) special plate, thickness more than 60mm
2, Classification by production method: (1) Hot-rolled steel plate (2) Cold-rolled steel plate
3, Classification by surface characteristics: (1) Galvanized plate (hot galvanized plate, electric galvanized plate) (2) tin plated plate (3) composite steel sheet (4) color coated steel plate
4, according to use classification :(1) bridge steel plate (2) boiler steel plate (3) shipbuilding steel plate (4) armor plate (5) automobile steel plate (6) roof steel plate (7) structural steel plate (8) electrical steel (silicon steel sheet) (9) spring steel plate (10) heat resistant steel plate (11) alloy steel plate (12) others.
