What types of low carbon steel plates are there?

Low carbon steel plate is a steel with a lower carbon content, usually between 0.05%-0.25%. It has lower carbon content and higher plasticity than ordinary steel, so it is widely used in various industrial fields.

There are many types of mild steel. Here are some common types:

Q195: This is a Chinese standard low carbon structural steel that is widely used in the manufacture of lightweight components and general parts.

Q215: It is also a low carbon steel model under Chinese standards. It has good plasticity and welding performance, and has superior strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

Q235: It is a commonly used low-carbon structural steel in China. Its carbon content is 0.12%~0.20%. It is not only used in construction and engineering structures, but also widely used in bridges, vehicles, ships, transmission towers and other fields.

SS400: This is a Japanese low carbon steel with a carbon content of 0.05%. This kind of steel has good plasticity and weldability and is often used to manufacture various structural parts and mechanical parts.

A36: is an American low-carbon structural steel with a carbon content of 0.26%, suitable for some construction and manufacturing applications.

In addition, 20 steel and 45 steel are also common types of low carbon steel in China. The carbon content of 20 steel is 0.22%~0.24%, while the carbon content of 45 steel is 0.42%~0.50%. This steel has high strength and toughness and is often used to manufacture mechanical parts, axles, knives, etc.
