Chemical composition of SM400 steel plate:
when thickness ≤ 20mm, chemical composition (mass fraction) /%
C≤0.23; Si -; Mn≤2.5*C; P≤0.035; S≤0.035
When the thickness is between 50-200mm, chemical composition (mass fraction) /%
C≤0.25; Si -; Mn≤2.5*C; P≤0.035; S≤0.035
To be exact, the carbon content varies with the thickness
Requirements for carbon equivalent of SM400 steel plate:
Thickness ≤: 50mm, carbon equivalent,%: ≤ 0.44
Thickness > 50 ≤ 100mm, carbon equivalent,%: ≤0.47.
Thickness performance of SM400A SM400B and SM400C steel plate: Z15, Z25, Z35, such as SM400B-Z15, SM400B-Z25, SM400B-Z35, SM400C-Z15, etc.
