Technical Specifications
Product Overview
Metallurgical Characteristics
SA515 Grade 70 is a medium-carbon steel with a predominantly ferritic-pearlitic microstructure. The controlled carbon content and manganese addition provide optimal strength-to-ductility balance, while silicon acts as a deoxidizer and strengthening agent. The fine-grained structure achieved through controlled rolling enhances both mechanical properties and weldability.
Heat Treatment Process
MetalZenith employs normalized heat treatment for SA515 Grade 70, involving heating to 900-950°C followed by air cooling. This process refines the grain structure, relieves internal stresses, and ensures uniform mechanical properties throughout the material thickness. Stress relief annealing at 580-650°C may be applied for enhanced dimensional stability.
Manufacturing Process
Our integrated manufacturing process begins with electric arc furnace steelmaking using high-quality raw materials. The molten steel undergoes ladle refining for precise chemistry control and degassing. Continuous casting produces high-quality slabs, which are then hot-rolled using computer-controlled rolling mills with precise temperature and reduction schedules to achieve optimal mechanical properties.
Quality Standards and Testing
All SA515 Grade 70 products manufactured by MetalZenith comply with ASTM A515/A515M and ASME SA-515 specifications. Comprehensive testing includes chemical analysis by optical emission spectroscopy, tensile testing, Charpy impact testing, hardness measurement, and ultrasonic inspection for internal soundness. Mill test certificates and third-party inspection services are available upon request.
