ASTM A36 Grade B Structural Steel Tube: Carbon Precision Steel Tube for Structural Use

Material

ASTM A36 Grade B is a low carbon structural steel that is widely used in construction and manufacturing. It is known for its excellent weldability, machinability, and ability to be heat treated to harden its surface. This grade is commonly used in structural applications due to its good mechanical properties and cost-effectiveness.

Specification

ASTM A36 specifies the requirements for carbon structural steel shapes, plates, and bars of structural quality for use in building and other structures. The steel is produced in various forms, including tubes, which are essential for various structural applications.

Key Features

• High Strength: Provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio.
• Weldability: Easily welded using standard welding techniques.
• Machinability: Can be machined to precise dimensions.
• Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications.
• Cost-Effective: Economical choice for structural applications.
