🟧 Product Overview
ASTM A572 Structural Carbon Steel Coil is a high‑strength low‑alloy (HSLA) steel widely used in structural engineering, bridge construction, machinery manufacturing, and heavy equipment fabrication. It offers higher yield strength than mild steel while maintaining good weldability and formability.
A572 is available in Grades 42, 50, 55, 60, and 65, with Grade 50 being the most commonly used for structural applications. Equivalent international grades include EN S355JR, JIS SS490, and GB Q355 series.
