The chemical composition of A514 Grade E steel plate mainly includes carbon, silicon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur and other elements. Specifically, carbon content is an important indicator. Different data give different ranges. Some data indicate that the carbon content does not exceed 0.20%, while other data believe that the carbon content is between 0.12% and 0.21%. Some data believe that its carbon content is relatively high, about 0.22%~0.29%. These differences may be due to different production processes or standards. In addition, the silicon content does not exceed 0.35%, and the manganese content is usually between 1.2% and 1.7%, but there is also information that the manganese content is in the range of 0.70% to 1.00%. Both the phosphorus content and the sulfur content are relatively low, with the phosphorus content not exceeding 0.025% and the sulfur content not exceeding 0.005%.
A514 Grade E steel plate is a high-strength quenched and tempered alloy steel with excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, so it is widely used in many fields.
First of all, in the shipbuilding and offshore engineering manufacturing industry, A514 Grade E steel plates are widely used to manufacture key parts such as ship structures, offshore platforms, drilling platforms, and oil production platforms to improve the corrosion resistance and impact resistance of ships and offshore facilities.
Secondly, A514 Grade E steel plates are also commonly used in the mining machinery and equipment manufacturing industry, such as car bodies, buckets, screens, leaky mine screens, excavator buckets, etc. Its high strength and wear resistance can meet the requirements of these equipment in harsh environments. Requirements for use in working environments.
In addition, A514 Grade E steel plates are also widely used in the petrochemical industry. In this industry, many equipment need to withstand the harsh environment of high temperature and pressure, and also need to have good corrosion resistance. A514 Grade E steel plates can be used to manufacture key components such as reactors, vessels, and pipelines in petrochemical equipment to meet the high material requirements of these equipments.
In the bridge construction industry, A514 Grade E steel plates are also widely used. It can be used to manufacture key parts such as the load-bearing structure and bridge deck of bridges to improve the load-bearing capacity and durability of the bridge.
