High-strength, low-alloy structural steel plate engineered for bridges and heavy civil and industrial structures. A709 Grade 50 is produced to meet A709/A709M requirements and is formulated for excellent weldability, toughness and high yield strength required in bridge building and structural applications.

Key features

  • Conforms to A709/A709M implementation standard; commonly referenced as A709Gr50 (345), A709Gr50S (345S) and A709Gr50W (345W).
  • Available variants include atmospheric-corrosion-resistant and higher-strength grades such as A709GrHPS70W (485W) and A709Gr100 (690).
  • Plate thickness range: 8–400 mm. Supplied with fixed rolling length and width upon request.
  • Manufactured and inspected to domestic and international test standards on request (examples include China JB4730 / GB/T2970 and various international equivalents). Third-party inspection levels (first, second and third level) can be arranged.
  • Chemical composition and mechanical properties are controlled to meet A709 specification limits for elements including C, Si, Mn, P, S and Nb and the corresponding yield/tensile requirements called out in A709 for Grade 50.

Typical applications

  • Bridge superstructure and substructure components
  • Heavy construction and building steelwork
  • Construction and mining machinery frames and parts
  • Trucks, trailers and other heavy transport components
  • Any welded structural components requiring high strength and good toughness
