What is A1011?

What is A1011?

The A1011 specification is the Standard Specification for light gauge Hot-Rolled Sheet and Strip Carbon(CS and DS), Structural(SS), High-Strength Low-Alloy(HSLAS), High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability(HSLAS-F), and Ultra-High Strength(UHSS) steels in thicknesses up to 0.230″(6 mm) in coil form.

Is ASTM A1011 same as A36?

The ASTM A1011 Grade 36 and ASTM A1018 Grade 36 specifications are for the sheet and strip forms of A36. The A709 Grade 36 is denoted as bridge material with the same basic chemical, mechanical, and physical properties.

What is ASTM A1011 CS Type B?

A1011 CS Type B is a hot rolled commercial quality sheet (CS) carbon steel that is suitable for applications where normal surface imperfections are not objectionable. A1011 CS undergoes heat treatment and other processing operations.

What is HSLA F steel?

Home Products Products by Spec HSLA & HSLAS F Grade. High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) steel is very strong, highly formable, and easy to weld. High Strength Low Alloy steels resist corrosion and rust better than plain-carbon steels.

What is plain carbon steel used for?

Uses for carbon steels Medium carbon steel is a lot easier to machine and adding small amounts of silicon and manganese improves the quality. Also called mild steel, it’s commonly used structurally in buildings and bridges, axles, gears, shafts, rails, pipelines and couplings, cars, fridges and washing machines.

What is ASTM A108?

The ASTM A108 (A108M is the equivalent metric version of A108) is a standard specification created to help define the technical requirements for Steel Bars, Carbon and Alloy, Cold-Finished. Steel grades for A108 are defined by their chemical composition.

What is HSLA steel used for?

Steels for aircraft structures HSLA steels are referred to as micro-alloyed steels because they are alloyed at low concentrations compared with other types of steels. The yield strength of HSLA steels is 250–600 MPa and they are used in automobiles, trucks and bridges amongst other applications.

What is the difference between the carbon steel and HSLA steel?

High-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA) is a type of alloy steel that provides better mechanical properties or greater resistance to corrosion than carbon steel. Because of their higher strength and toughness HSLA steels usually require 25 to 30% more power to form, as compared to carbon steels.

What is commercial quality steel?

The term Commercial Quality is a general reference for a steel type that is not as formable as Drawing Quality. These can apply to either hot-rolled or cold-rolled steels. Deep Drawing Quality and Extra Deep Drawing Quality are then more formable than the other grades.

Which is the ASTM A1011 high strength steel?

ASTM A1011 The A1011 specification is the Standard Specification for light gauge Hot-Rolled Sheet and Strip Carbon (CS and DS), Structural (SS), High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLAS), High-Strength Low-Alloy with Improved Formability (HSLAS-F), and Ultra-High Strength (UHSS) steels in thicknesses up to 0.230″ (6 mm) in coil form.

What kind of steel sheet is Alro A1011?

Alro stocks A1011/1018 CS Type B Hot Rolled Sheet (also known as ASTM A1011) This product is a hot rolled commercial quality steel suitable for many applications where normal surface imperfections are not objectionable. A1011 Type B can be bent at average room temperatures without cracking on itself.

Can a A1011 steel sheet be bent without cracking?

A1011 Type B can be bent at average room temperatures without cracking on itself. It is known for having high strength and excellent formability. Heat treatment and other processing operations must be properly performed so as to not detrimentally affect the properties of the steel.

When to buy A1011 / 1018 CS hot rolled sheet?

A1011/1018 CS Type B Hot Rolled Sheet is typically bought to meet chemistry requirements rather than physical requirements. For that reason, physical properties are generally not provided unless requested prior to production.
