GL DH40 shipbuilding steel plate and sheet
GL DH40 Steel Description:
The steel for shipbuilding and oil platform---DH40, is the high tensile strength steel.
GL DH40 is the Hull structural steel,with it's good toughness properties, higher strength,strong corrosion-resistance,the processing properties,and welding properties.GL DH40 steel can be used in the manufacture of the ocean ship's hull structure whose weight is above 10000 tons.
GL DH40 Steel Application :
GL DH40 is mainly used to manufacture the ship hull structure of ocean, coastal and inland sea areas , shipyards, oil platforms, pipelines in the ocean, coastal power plants, port facilities and other structural parts.

Note: 1. delivery condition: A =Any ; N=Normalized ; CR=Control Rolled ; TM=TMPC, Temperature - deformation control rolling; AR*= Can be hot rolled with the agreement of Classification Society ; CR*=Can be control rolled with the agreement of Classification Society .
2. The Figure in the ( ) means the sampling volume to do the impact test, the unit is Ton.(-) means without impact test.
GL DH40 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. Because this steel contains a small amount of V, Ti, Nb and other elements of grain refinement, and in order to reduce the hardening tendency of cracks to prevent cold(ing) crack, the use of welding wire energy may be more.
