ASTM SA-36

Grade Introduction:
ASTM SA-36 is the most commonly used mild and hot-rolled steel. It has excellent welding properties and is suitable for grinding, punching, tapping, drilling, and machining processes. The yield strength of ASTM SA36 is less than that of cold roll C1018, thus enabling ASTM SA36 to bend more readily than C1018. Normally, larger diameters in ASTM SA36 are not produced since C1018 hot roll rounds are used.

Grade Application

ASTM SA36 steel has the following applications:

  • It is used in bolted, riveted or welded construction of bridges, buildings and oil rigs.
  • It is used in forming tanks, bins, bearing plates, fixtures, rings, templates, jigs, sprockets, cams, gears, base plates, forgings, ornamental works, stakes, brackets, automotive and agricultural equipment, frames, machinery parts.
  • It is used for various parts obtained by flame cutting such as in parking garages, walkways, boat landing ramps and trenches.

Chemical Composition

The following table shows the chemical composition of ASTM SA-36 steel:

Element C Cu Fe Mn P Si S
Content (%) 0.25-0.29 0.20 98.0 1.03 0.040 0.280 0.050

Hardness

119 – 159

Tempering

A36 is low carbon steel, it is not suited for heat treatment. So can’t harden. If need hardening, heat to 880-910°C, then quenching in water and temper.

Thermal Properties

Thermal Conductivity, W/m-K – 50 – 42
Thermal Expansion, µm/m-K – 11 to 13

Stress Reliving

Stress relieving at 677°C – 927°C(1250°F-1700°F)

Normalizing

Normalizing at 899°C – 954°C (1650°F-1750°F)

Density

Density 7.85 g/cm3 0.284 lb/in3

Machinability

The machinability rate of ASTM SA36 is estimated to be 72%, and the average surface cutting feed of ASTM SA36 is 120 ft/min. Machining of ASTM SA36 steel is not as easy as that of AISI 1018 steel.

Welding

ASTM SA36 steel is easy to weld using any type of welding method, and the welds and joints so formed are of excellent quality.
