AISI 1020 / ASTM A-36 Grade Steel Plates
No specific analysis is required, however, the material may be described as 0.17 to 0.25 Carbon, Silicon-Killed Plate. The term "Silicon-Killed" refers to the steel manufacturing process to insure high quality plates. These plates are easily welded by all the welding processes and the resultant welds and joints are of extremely high quality. The grade of welding rod to be used depends on the thickness of section, design, service requirements, etc. The thickness range normally stocked is 3/16" to 16"
