SA514 Gr Q hot rolled high strength carbon steel

SA514 Grade Q is a type of high-strength, hot-rolled carbon steel that falls under the ASME SA514/SA514M specification. It is specifically designed to possess excellent strength and toughness properties.

The "Gr Q" designation indicates that this steel grade has a specified minimum yield strength of 100 ksi (690 MPa) and a minimum tensile strength of 110-130 ksi (760-895 MPa). This high-strength property makes it suitable for applications where heavy loads and harsh conditions are present.

SA514 Gr Q hot rolled high-strength carbon steel is produced by heating the material above its recrystallization temperature and subjecting it to hot rolling, a process that enhances the mechanical properties of the steel. The hot rolling process increases the strength and ductility of the material, making it suitable for demanding structural applications.

Due to its high strength, SA514 Gr Q is commonly used in industries such as construction, mining, machinery, and transportation. It can be further processed through cutting, bending, welding, and other fabrication techniques to meet specific project requirements.
