A572 Gr 55 high strength steel, High-strength steel plates are widely used in many industries such as construction, automobiles, ships, machinery and equipment, but high-strength steel plates must be selected appropriately. First, the grade is too high, which means that the price will be high because of the high manufacturing cost. Second, the low level means that the safety performance cannot meet the standard. Third, we must strictly follow the design drawings to select high-strength steel plates specifications. Fourth, it is advised the purchaser to test the high-strength steel plates with special equipment.
Z-direction steel refers to thick steel with good tensile resistance in thickness direction. In the application of steel plate, the reason for additional performance requirements on the thickness direction of steel is due to the existence of defects in the thickness direction of steel in the process of casting and rolling. This defect makes the steel prone to lamellar tearing during welding, which reduces or even loses the design bearing capacity of application. The Z-direction performance is required for A572 Gr 55 high strength steel and so on steel plate with the tensile force along the plate thickness direction greater than or equal to 40mm.
The A572 Gr 55 high strength steel processing performance is good. Due to the uniform control of steel plate performance, excellent performance coordination and good toughness guarantee, the steel plate bending processing, drilling, cutting and other mechanical processing properties are excellent. In addition, the surface of the A572 Gr 55 high strength steel steel plate is smooth and beautiful by inhibiting and removing oxide scale from slab heating to rolling process and heat treatment in furnace without oxidation atmosphere.
