Why Buyers Choose Our A36 Plates
Fully compliant with ASTM A36 and dual-certified to EN 10025-2 S235JR to meet international compliance and structural engineering requirements.
Strict control of carbon equivalent value below 0.40% provides excellent weldability and machinability, reducing processing downtime and tool wear.
Verified yield strength of at least 250 MPa and tensile strength between 400 and 550 MPa deliver reliable structural load-bearing capacity.
Roller-leveled flatness within 3mm per meter prevents material deformation during high-speed CNC laser or plasma cutting.
Every plate is stamped with traceable heat numbers linked directly to the Mill Test Certificate (MTC) according to EN 10204 3.1 standards.
