CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
- The chemical composition of this category comprises Carbon (C) at 0.26%, Copper (Cu) at 0.2%, Iron (Fe) at 99%, Manganese (Mn) at 0.75%, with Phosphorus (P) and Sulfur (S) both at a maximum of 0.04% and 0.05% respectively.
MECHANICAL INFORMATION
- The material has a density of 0.282 lb/in3 (7.8 g/cc) and exhibits an ultimate tensile strength of 58,000 psi (400 MPa) and a yield tensile strength of 47,700 psi (315 MPa). It has a shear strength of 43,500 psi (300 MPa) and a melting point range between 2,590 and 2,670°F (1,420 and 1,460°C). The hardness is measured at 140 Brinell, and the material is produced using the hot rolled method.
AVAILABLE SIZES
- The available size for this category of materials, based on its chemical composition and mechanical properties, would typically include a range of thicknesses and widths in hot rolled steel sheets and plates. Common sizes may range from 1/4 inch to 1 inch in thickness, with widths varying from 36 inches to 96 inches. Lengths can vary depending on the requirement but generally range from 96 inches to 240 inches. Specific available sizes might differ by manufacturer and specific application needs, and custom sizes can often be accommodated by request.
