Hot rolled A131 FH40 ship construction steel equivalent grade in EN standard

Hot rolled A131 FH40 ship construction steel equivalent grade in EN standard

Generally speaking, rolled plates are easier to handle in a high temperature environment, and the heat treatment of A131 FH40 ship construction steel, rolled plates is also very common. Hot rolling can not only greatly reduce energy consumption and save costs, but also improve the processing performance of metals and alloys, that is, the coarse grains in the as-cast state are broken, the cracks are healed significantly, and the processing performance of the alloy is improved.

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.

"As Covid 19 spreads around the world, all unnecessary businesses and factories have been closed in Italy this week. South Korea's POSCO, the world's fifth-largest steelmaker, announced on March 24th that it would close its A131 FH40 ship construction steel wire-processing centre near the northern Italian city of Verona from Thursday March 26th until April 3rd. POSCO has already closed two wire-processing centres in Delhi and Pune. Two wire processing centers in Malaysia and Thailand also announced last week that they will be closed until March 31."

The overall intention of supporting prices in the raw material market is relatively strong, but the steel mills have a low acceptance of high prices, and some just need a small amount of goods, so the overall market game state is obvious. With the poor release of steel demand, terminal merchants tend to consume low-cost inventory in the early stage and purchase on demand to avoid the risk of large-scale hoarding. However, the cost side is weak, and some A131 FH40 ship construction steel manufacturers secretly reduce prices to promote transactions. It is expected that the A131 FH40 ship construction steel market will be stable and weak in the future.
