AB,DH36, ABS DH36, DH36 Steel for Shipbuilding and Oil Platform

AB/DH36,ABS/DH36,DH36 steel plate sheet is mainly used for shipbuilding steel and oil platform.

Shanghai Katalor Industry Co., Ltd can supply steel grade AB/DH36,AB/AH36, AB/EH36, AB/FH36 high strength structural shipbuilding steel to the ASTM A131. Like ABS A &B, these grades of steel plates are almost exclusively utilized in the Shipbuilding Industry for the construction of Structural Parts of ships, barges and Marine Equipment.All grades are certified by ABS and represents the Higher Strength Group of ABS.The ABS DH36 is in the control rolled and normalized condition.

The material is available in heavy plates, surface treated plates and fabricated sections. The shipbuilding structural steel is used for the main structural build including the hull and superstructure. DH36 is suitable for new builds or refits and can be found in large bulk carriers, container ships and passenger liners.

Chemical Composition of AB/DH36 shipbuilding steel: C.max:0.18, Si:0.50, Mn:0.90-1.60, P:0.035, S:0.035, Al:0.015, Ti:0.02, Cu:0.35, Cr:0.20, Ni:0.40, Mo:0.08, Nb:0.02-0.05, V:0.05-0.10.
Mechanical Properties of AB/DH36 shipbuilding steel: The tensile strength of ABS/DH36 is 490 to 630 MPa, the yield strength of DH36 is 355MPa,and its minimum elnogation is 21%.Meanwhile, underdifferent thickness, the AH36 shipbuilding steel plate has different length ways and crosswise,which just like the followings:
