Phosphorus (max) 0.035%
Sulfur (max) 0.04%
Silicon (max) 0.40%

Applications and Uses of ASTM A283 Grade C in Industry

ASTM A283 Grade C steel is commonly used in:

  1. General structural applications
  2. Bridges and buildings (riveted, bolted, or welded construction)
  3. Storage tanks
  4. Pressure vessels
  5. Low pressure, temperature controlled vessels

Manufacturing Process and Available Dimensions

ASTM A283 Grade C is typically produced through open-hearth, basic-oxygen, or electric furnace processes. Available dimensions include:

Thickness Width Length
3 mm – 610 mm 1500 mm – 4064 mm 3000 mm – 27000 mm

Welding and Fabrication Considerations

ASTM A283 Grade C has excellent weldability and can be welded using common methods such as shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) and gas metal arc welding (GMAW). It is also suitable for bolting and riveting.

Comparison of Grade C with Other ASTM A283 Grades

Grade Yield Strength (min MPa) Tensile Strength (MPa)
A 165 310-415
B 185 345-450
C 205 380-515
D 230 415-550

Cost-Effectiveness and Performance Benefits

ASTM A283 Grade C offers a balance of strength and formability, making it suitable for various structural applications. Its moderate strength and good ductility make it a cost-effective choice for general industrial applications where high strength is not required.
