High-strength ABS Grade EH36 shipbuilding steel plate engineered for demanding marine and offshore applications. EH36 is a high-yield, structural alloy plate specified for hulls, decks and offshore structures where enhanced toughness and weldability are required. Equivalent classification designations include LR EH36, CCS EH36, BV EH36, GL-E36, NV E36 and RINA EH36.
Key features
- Mechanical performance: yield strength ≈ 355 MPa (51,000 psi); ultimate tensile strength typically 490–620 MPa (71,000–90,000 psi).
- Plate thickness range: 4 mm up to 260 mm (available sizes depend on process and grade).
- Typical sizes: widths from 1,200 mm and lengths from 3,000 mm (custom cut-to-length and special sizes available on request).
- Delivery conditions: AR (as-rolled), TMCP (thermo-mechanical control process), Q+T (quenching & tempering), N (normalized), CR (control-rolled).
- Processing & testing services: hot-rolled, control-rolled, TMCP, normalized, quenched & tempered; impact testing (Z15, Z25) and full mechanical/chemical testing per classification requirements.
Typical applications
- Container and bulk cargo vessels
- Cruise ships and ferries
- Offshore platforms and support structures
- Other marine structural components requiring high-strength, high-toughness plate
Certificates & inspection
Mill test certificates and classification society documentation can be provided to meet ABS, LR, BV, CCS, GL or RINA requirements. Additional third-party inspection, nondestructive testing and impact testing can be arranged per buyer specification.
Supply & ordering
Available for bulk supply and project orders. Provide RFQ with required thickness, width, length, quantity, delivery condition and required certificates or tests. Cut-to-size, edge preparation and packing for sea shipment can be offered on request.
