Q235-A Carbon Steel Bar

Q235-A Carbon Steel Bar is solid bar stock adhering to the Chinese national standard (GB/T 700) for general structural carbon steel. The "Q" stands for Yield Strength, and "235" indicates a guaranteed minimum yield strength of 253MPa(for diametres ≤ 16mm). The "-A" designation indicates the lowest quality level among the Q235 grades, allowing for the highest permissible levels of impurities (Sulfur and Phosphorus) and typically not requiring impact testing. This steel offers a practical combination of moderate strength, good weldability, and desirable plasticity at an economical price. Q235-A bar is widely used for manufacturing general structural supports, non-critical mechanical parts, fasteners, and basic components in construction, civil engineering, and general manufacturing where basic mechanical properties and cost-effectiveness are sufficient.
