When the thickness ≤16mm, the yield strength of TMCP Q460MC steel plate is ≥460 Mpa, and the tensile strength is 540-720 Mpa. TMCP Q460MC steel plate is used as high strength steel structural parts for engineering and general structures with impact performance requirements at low temperature. A572 Gr 60 high strength steel, Q460MC steel plate is mainly used for manufacturing bridges, ships, vehicles, boilers, high pressure vessels, oil and gas pipelines, large steel structures, etc.
We have 4 typical production lines A572 Gr 60 high strength steel, which can produce hot rolled Seamless, LSAW, ERW and SSAW pipes. The Seamless pipe production line range is OD 10.3mm-965.2mm, wall thickness 1.0mm-60mm, Annual capacity is 500 thousand tons. LSAW pipe production line range is OD 406mm-1524mm, wall thickness 6mm-50mm, Annual capacity is 150 thousand tons.
According to the economic development trend in Asia and the economic development of China, India, Japan and ASEAN, it is estimated that the steel consumption in Asia will be 1228 million tons in 2019, with a year-on-year growth of 6.6%; the A572 Gr 60 high strength steel steel demand in Asia in 2020 is predicted to be 1.241 billion tons, with a year-on-year growth of 1.1%. According to the A572 Gr 60 high strength steel economic development of Europe, it is estimated that the steel consumption in Europe will be 202 million tons in 2019, with a year-on-year decrease of 3.3%; the steel demand in Europe in 2020 is predicted to be 205 million tons, with a year-on-year growth of 1.5%.
Japan's crude steel production is expected to fall 25.9% in the April June quarter from a year earlier, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said Thursday. The Ministry of Economy and Industry quoted an industry survey report as saying that the demand for A572 Gr 60 high strength steel and so on steel products (including export products) in April June is expected to drop 18.1% to 18.28 million tons from the same period last year. At the same time, steel exports in the current quarter will decline by 21.4% year-on-year.
