Carbon steel plates manufactured to the ASTM A285 specification, offered in Grades A, B and C. ASTM A285 plate is a low- to intermediate-tensile carbon steel intended for pressure-vessel, boiler and general fabrication applications where toughness and controlled chemistry are required.

Key features

  • Available in three grades (A, B, C) to suit different strength and ductility requirements.
  • Typical thickness range: 3–150 mm.
  • Typical widths: 1,220–4,200 mm.
  • Typical lengths: 5,000–18,000 mm.
  • Supplied in mill condition; can be cut, trimmed, beveled and machined to customer specifications.

Mechanical and quality services (available on request)

  • Chemical composition analysis
  • Tensile testing (additional tension tests)
  • Charpy V-notch impact testing
  • Drop-weight testing
  • High-temperature tension testing
  • Ultrasonic examination (UT)
  • Magnetic particle inspection (MPI)
  • Dimensional and visual inspection
  • Supply with material test certificates (MTC) and third-party inspection upon request

Applications

  • Pressure vessels and boilers
  • Storage tanks and process equipment
  • Low- and medium-pressure piping and vessels
  • General structural and fabrication work where controlled chemistry and predictable mechanical properties are required

Supply and processing

Plates are available ex-stock or manufactured to order. Cut-to-size, CNC machining and additional fabrication services can be provided to meet project tolerances and delivery schedules. Products can be supplied with inspection documentation and quality certification from accredited laboratories or third-party inspectors to support regulatory and project requirements.
