Q235-A Carbon Steel Plate
Q235-A Carbon Steel Plate is a Chinese national standard (GB/T 700) grade of general structural carbon steel. The "Q" stands for Yield Strength, and "235" indicates a guaranteed minimum yield strength of 235 MPa(for plates ≤16mm thick). The "-A" designation indicates the lowest quality level among the Q235 grades, typically having the highest allowable sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) content and requiring less stringent impact testing. This steel offers good weldability, plasticity, and moderate strength. Q235-A plate is one of the most common and versatile structural steels used in construction, bridges, general engineering, and manufacturing for structural parts and general components where basic mechanical properties and low cost are prioritized.
