The EN 10025-6 high strength steel 1.8984 steel tolerance range

What is the difference between Q345B steel and Q345A steel?
EN 10025-6 high strength steel 1.8984, Q345B steel and Q345A steel have slight difference in chemical composition: Q345A steel: C ≤ 0.20, Mn ≤ 1.7, Si ≤ 0.55, P ≤ 0.045, S ≤ 0.045, V 0.02 ~ 0.15; Q345B steel: C ≤ 0.20, Mn ≤ 1.7, Si ≤ 0.55, P ≤ 0.040, S ≤ 0.040, V 0.02 ~ 0.15. The difference between Q345B steel and Q345A steel is mainly in A and B behind the steel grade, Q345A steel grade is not subject to impact; Q345B steel grade needs 20 ℃ room temperature impact test.

Compared with the traditional seamless steel pipe, alloy seamless pipe has better performance in all aspects. Because of the addition of various metal elements in the manufacturing, the overall strength of the alloy seamless pipe is larger, stronger and durable, and the service performance and service life of the EN 10025-6 high strength steel 1.8984, alloy seamless pipe are improved. The alloy seamless pipe is the best choice especially for special environment and high pressure requirements. Because of its high material properties, alloy seamless pipe has good corrosion resistance. It is not easy to be corroded in some special environment, which reduces the cost of the project and has a longer service life.

According to the economic development trend in Asia and the economic development of China, India, Japan and ASEAN, it is estimated that the steel consumption in Asia will be 1228 million tons in 2019, with a year-on-year growth of 6.6%; the EN 10025-6 high strength steel 1.8984 steel demand in Asia in 2020 is predicted to be 1.241 billion tons, with a year-on-year growth of 1.1%. According to the EN 10025-6 high strength steel 1.8984 economic development of Europe, it is estimated that the steel consumption in Europe will be 202 million tons in 2019, with a year-on-year decrease of 3.3%; the steel demand in Europe in 2020 is predicted to be 205 million tons, with a year-on-year growth of 1.5%.

In October, the demand for finished products improved significantly, breaking through the high of 4.4 million tons per week, and the price of black products went up overall. Among them, coke performed particularly well under the stimulus of downstream shortages and high molten iron output. It wasn't until early November that coke futures prices fell from a high level due to high disk premiums. After six rounds of increases, the spot price also began to weaken. Downstream steel mills were more resistant to the seventh round of increases.
