Low Tensile A285 Grade A Steel

Low Tensile A285 Grade A Steel

ASTM A285 Grade A is a low-tensile strength carbon steel plate, designated for fusion-welded boilers and pressure vessels, known for its excellent weldability, ductility, and affordability, suitable for non-aggressive, low-pressure applications like storage tanks and simple heat exchangers, featuring low carbon (max 0.17%) and manganese (max 0.90%) content. It offers a minimum yield strength of 24 ksi (165 MPa) and tensile strength of 45-65 ksi (310-450 MPa)

Density and Delivery Condition

As indicated in a 285 gr a mechanical properties and density guide, density is 7.85 g/cm³ (7850 kg/m³), aiding accurate calculations for vessel weight.

Plates are delivered as-rolled, with Gneesteel providing normalization or stress relieving to reduce welding stresses.

We include ultrasonic testing for quality, ensuring plates are fabrication-ready.

Available Specifications and Models

Gneesteel supplies ASTM A285 Grade A in thicknesses from 6mm to 50mm (restricted for low-strength grade), widths up to 3500mm, and lengths to 18000mm.

Compliant with ASTM A285/A285M, we offer custom beveling and cuts.

For different strengths, compare with ASTM A 285 Grade B or C.
