A131 FH40 ship construction steel equivalent grades in the steel industry

Grade A ship steel is mainly used for the internal frame of the ship and the outer plate bearing general stress. Grade B, Grade D and Grade E ship steel A131 FH40 ship construction steel can be used for important structures in high stress areas such as hull outer plate and main deck. The Grade E ship steel has good low temperature performance, which is suitable for the hull outer plate, deck, etc. According to the minimum yield strength, the high-strength ship steel is divided into four grades: A, D, E and F. The commonly used high strength ship steels are AH32, DH32, EH32, etc.

A131 FH40 ship construction steel product plate specification range: Thickness 3-150mm Width 1500-4020mm Length 4000mm-17000mm Heat treatment: annealing, or normalizing and tempering

Hyundai Steel Co. has no plans to cut production further despite weak steel demand due to the coronavirus pandemic, the company's president said. Earlier this year, South Korea's second largest steelmaker reduced its A131 FH40 ship construction steel annual production of hot rolled coils from 1 million tons previously to 700 thousand tons per year for EAFs. A turnaround is expected after the third quarter of this year.

In order to obtain the seamless tube with smaller size and better quality, the method of cold rolling, cold drawing or the combination of the two must be used. Cold rolling is usually carried out on a two high mill, and A131 FH40 ship construction steel pipes are rolled in a circular pass composed of a variable cross-section circular groove and a fixed conical head. Cold drawing is usually carried out on single chain or double chain cold drawing machines of 0.5-100t.
