ASME SA572 Grade 55/SA572 Gr.55 steel plate are also called SA572 Grade 55/SA572 Gr.55 high strength low alloy structure steel plates. From the name, we can learn that compared with carbon steel, the use of SA572 Gr.55 steel can reduce the size and weight of the structural parts.
In order to further improve ASME SA572 Grade 55/SA572 Gr.55 steel plate strength, a small amount of niobium or vanadium or titanium are usually added to SA572 Gr.55 steel. These elements are economically enhanced by precipitation and hardening. Other alloy elements that are added for various purposes can also be strengthened.
It is common to use ASME SA572 Grade 55/SA572 Gr.55 steel plates instead of mild steel plates, so as to get a more durable structure without increasing the weight and changing the structure size. Especilly for the vehicle, the weight reduction is very essential, which can transport heavier weight and reduce energy consumption. ASME SA572 Grade 55/SA572 Gr.55 steel plate is undoubtedly a good choice.
