High Tensile Steel Plates Suppliers, Immediate Supplies of High Quality High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) Steel Plates
High-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA)
HSLA steels have yield strengths greater than 275 MPa, or 40 ksi). The chemical composition of a specific HSLA steel may vary for different product thicknesses to meet mechanical property requirements. The HSLA steels in sheet or plate form have low carbon content (0.05 to −0.25% C) in order to produce adequate formability and weldability.
The oil & gas sector is still market where the most important applications for HSLA steels are found, but the automotive and the offshore & onshore structural engineering sectors now consume significant quantities of these alloys.
