GL A shipbuilding steel plate and sheet
The steel for shipbuilding and oil platform---A, is the common tensile strength steel.
It is the Hull structural steel,with it's good toughness properties, higher strength,strong corrosion-resistance ,the processing properties,and welding properties.
GL A Steel Application :
GL A steel can be used in the manufacture of the ship's hull structure whose weight is below 10000 tons,and usually do navigation around coastal and river area. GLA with high strength, good toughness low temperature impact , excellent weldability characteristics, is a kind of high strength ship's hull structure plate.GL A is used to manufacture medium-sized ocean, coastal and river trade area ship's hull structure.

2.Some residual elements ,like Cu and Sn ,can be controlled,because they are harmful to the property .

2. The Figure in the ( ) means the sampling volume to do the impact test, the unit is Ton.(-) means without impact test.
3. For the steel of thickness above 50mm, if the steel has passed rain refinement process and normalizing or heat engine controlled method, impact energy test can be avoided.

GLA shipbuilding plate has low alloy content, grain refinement elements like V, Ti, Nb, etc. Welding performance is superior. Preheating before welding is generally not proceeded, but it is done if it is at a low temperature or super thickness of structural components is welded, that is , it needs to take preheating measures. Our steel has exported to many countries ,like Korea,Viet Nam,Singapore,etc,and has a good reputation in the world.Our steel has exported to many countries ,like Korea,Viet Nam,Singapore,etc,and has a good reputation in the world.
