SS400 Mild Carbon Steel Sheet

SS400 Ms Steel Sheet

SS400 is one of the most commonly used hot rolled general structural steel.SS400 Steel Plate, JIS3101 SS400 steel plate, under JIS3101 standard, we can regard SS400 steel plate as Carbon and low alloy steel SS400 steel plate is one mainly of Carbon and low alloy steel, SS400 steel plate would be used to built containers which can bear low temperature sea water.

As well as being available from stock allSS400 steel plate can be cut to size and shape according to your fabrication and design requirements and all work is governed by our independently accredited and regularly audited quality systems.Our SS400 steel plate are sourced from the highest quality steel manufacturers in the world and, like all our suppliers, these manufacturers have been vetted and assessed by our procurement team.

SS400 steel plate sheet is a kind of steel for general structure,and it is used in ship,house,bridge making and so on.This kind of steel plate sheet SS400 has some features,like its heat condition,excellent freezing,even structure with pressure resistance and its good mechanical properties.

This specification of SS400 steel plate covers carbon structural steel shapes, plates, and bars of structural quality for use in riveted, bolted, or welded construction of bridges and buildings, and for general structural purposes. Heat analysis shall be used to determine the required chemical composition for carbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, and copper. Tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation shall be evaluated using tension test and must conform to the required tensile properties.SS400 is a Japanese standard steel whose material is 1.0037.

What is Mild Steel Sheet?

Mild steel is a type of carbon steel with a low amount of carbon – it is actually also known as “low carbon steel.” Although ranges vary depending on the source, the amount of carbon typically found in mild steel is 0.05% to 0.25% by weight, whereas higher carbon steels are typically described as having a carbon content from 0.30% to 2.0%. If any more carbon than that is added, the steel would be classified as cast iron.
Mild steel is not an alloy steel and therefore does not contain large amounts of other elements besides iron; you will not find vast amounts of chromium, molybdenum, or other alloying elements in mild steel. Since its carbon and alloying element content are relatively low, there are several properties it has that differentiate it from higher carbon and alloy steels.
Less carbon means that mild steel is typically more ductile, machinable, and weldable than high carbon and other steels, however, it also means it is nearly impossible to harden and strengthen through heating and quenching. The low carbon content also means it has very little carbon and other alloying elements to block dislocations in its crystal structure, generally resulting in less tensile strength than high carbon and alloy steels. Mild steel also has a high amount iron and ferrite, making it magnetic.
The lack of alloying elements such as those found in stainless steels means that the iron in mild steel is subject to oxidation (rust) if not properly coated. But the negligible amount of alloying elements also helps mild steel to be relatively affordable when compared with other steels. It is the affordability, weldability, and machinability that make it such a popular choice of steel for consumers.
