Plate 20 to 30mm thick A572 grade 42 high strength steel product: 20*1400*11400, 20*2100*7000, 20*2500*6200, 20*2933*7300, 20*3200*4400, 20.9*2851*7000, 21*2100*8810, 21.5*1630*13480, 22*3400*13000, 23.1*2590*7790, 25*1950*10150, 25*1950*9700, 25*2100*8400, 25*2100*8650, 25*2400*11600, 25*2400*8200, 28*2170*13000, 30*1600*10720, 30*1600*8600.
Strip steel is mainly used for the manufacture of welded pipes, clamps, washers, spring blades, saw blades, blades and other fields, so the A572 grade 42 high strength steel, strip steel specifications are also relatively standardized. First, the strip width should be within 1300mm, if it is too wide, it will become a steel plate, and the machining is not allowed to be too wide, otherwise it will fail. Second, the strip steel length is not limited, and the strip steel can be coiled together after bending, reducing most of the space.
Tata Steel Europe plans to cut 1250 jobs. Henrik Adam, CEO of Tata Steel, said: "the financial situation of Tata Steel Europe is very serious at present, and there is an urgent need to improve the company's performance and financial situation." Tata Steel has decided A572 grade 42 high strength steel in November 2019 to cut 3000 jobs in its European operations to reduce costs. After a period of negotiations with the European labour Commission, the layoff plan cut that number by more than half, minimizing unemployment. Tata Steel has about 20000 employees in Europe.
Low alloy structural steel, also known as ordinary low alloy steel, HSLA steel. A572 grade 42 high strength steel, Low alloy steel plates are killed or semi killed steel plates. Low alloy steel plates have the advantages of high strength, better performance, saving material and reducing the weight of structure. The thickness range of low alloy steel plates is usually 4.5-200mm. Low alloy structural steel is mainly used for manufacturing bridges, ships, vehicles, boilers, high pressure vessels, oil and gas pipelines, large steel structures, etc.
