One of the most widely used products of steel plants is steel sheet steel . Steel cards have many applications , and therefore a variety of steel sheets produced in terms of construction , thickness , composition of alloys , and other items are quite different .
Steel sheets are produced for use in various industries . Depending on the type of application and the purpose of using a steel sheet , it will be different to make the composition and combinations in the steel sheet . The industries that most commonly use cards are :
1.Low temperature fuel storage tanks
2.Railroad tracks
3.Military industry
4.pharmaceutical industry
5.Sugar production industries
6.Mill industries
7.Food industry
8.Jet shell
9.Aerospace fuel tanks
10.Making a license plate
11.Oil industry
12.Build large parts such as giant ships
13.Petrochemical Industries
14.Structural industries
15.Manufacture of household appliances
16.Metallic industries
17.Transport industry
18.Transportation industry for car manufacturing
19.Construction industry for use in some parts of the building
Because each steel sheet has different technical characteristics in terms of alloy, thickness, method of production, design, coating and the like, very different types are produced. For instance , by changing only a percentage of an alloy in stainless steel can produce tens of types of steel cards.
However, in a general classification, the types of steel sheets according to ASTM standard are as follows :
These types of sheets are made of austenitic alloys of chromium, nickel and manganese as the main alloys and its types are :
1.201 steel sheet: Austinite type and produced by cold rolling method
2.202 steel sheet: austenitic type and produced with a combination of stainless steel
The Steel cards are produced in a variety of different types , which are :
This type of sheet has a lot of flexibility and you can easily shape them. On the other hand, they have good welding capability and their wear resistance is very high.
302 corrosion cards resistant to corrosion . It can be said that their resistance is at the level of 304 series. Even 302 carbon is slightly more than 304, which makes it more durable.
303 steel sheet has better ductility than 304 type. The reason for this high flexibility is the presence of more sulfur and phosphorus .
The best and most common type of stainless steel sheet is 304 sheet, which has 18% chrome and 8% nickel.
This type of sheet is almost like 304 steel sheet and the only difference is the amount of carbon. The carbon of this sheet is less than type 304 and is quite suitable for welding.
309 sheets have higher thermal resistance than 304 sheets.
After 304 steel sheet, 316 steel sheet is the most widely used steel sheet in various industries. This type of sheet uses an alloy called molybdenum. For this reason, it is mostly used in food and pharmaceutical industries and its contamination rate is very low. It also has higher corrosion resistance than 304 sheet. For this reason, this type of steel sheet is mostly used in the marine industry. It is interesting to know that this type of steel is also used to make all kinds of watches. This sheet also withstands temperatures up to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. Type L316 is also a low carbon steel sheet of the same 316 series.
This is made of stainless steel and its molybdenum alloy is high . That is why it has high resistance to the chemicals . It also has high tensile strength and its stress tolerance is very high .
This sheet is similar to sheet 304 and during welding greatly reduces the risk of weld rot due to the addition of titanium.
The 400 Series steel sheet is also produced in the following types :
1.Steel sheet 405
2.Steel sheet 408
3.Steel sheet 409
4.410 steel sheet
5.Steel sheet 416
6.420 steel sheet
7.Steel sheet 430
8.Steel sheet 440
9.Steel sheet 446
The stainless steel sheet is produced only in one type , which has a lot of chromium over the previous series . As a result , its thermal resistance is higher .
600 series steel sheets also vary depending on the type of alloy used in them and based on these alloys, their strength and application also vary.
