ABS AH36 steel plate is a hot rolled steel produced for building hull structure according to the requirements of American Bureau of Shipping.
The ships built of ABS AH36 steel plates work in harsh environment, the hull is subject to chemical corrosion, electrochemical corrosion and corrosion of marine organisms and microorganisms. Meanwhile, the hull is subjected to large wind and wave impact and variable load. What's more, the shape of the ship and other factors make the processing method of ABS AH36 steel plate complex. So the requirement for hull structure steel such as ABS AH36 steel plate is rather strict.
What is ABS AH36 Shipbuilding Steel Sheet and Plates?
ABS AH36 shipbuilding steel sheet and plate consists of carbon, manganese, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, and trace elements to increase strength and toughness. It possesses a yield strength of 355 MPa and tensile strength of 490-620 MPa, along with superior impact resistance at -20°C. AH36 is high in toughness, weldability, and corrosion resistance, which makes it best suited for ship hulls, offshore platforms, and heavy equipment. Its benefits are better durability, structural integrity in aggressive marine conditions, and flexibility to harsh conditions, providing long-term performance.

ABS Grade AH36 Shipbuilding Steel Plate Application
AH36 shipbuilding steel plates and sheets are applied in marine and offshore sectors to fabricate ship hulls, decks, and superstructures as they possess great strength and anticorrosion features. AH36 steel sheets and plates also find applications in oil rigs, navy ships, and barge manufacturing. Besides that, AH36 steel finds its application in bridge construction, port facilities, and heavy machines used in abrasive conditions. Its high weldability and toughness qualify it for use in conditions of extreme exposure, providing safety and durability in sea operations.
