A283 is a low carbon structural steel and Kloeckner Metals is proud to supply it routinely across our nationwide network of branches.
This grade is a low carbon structural steel that is formable and strong. It shows excellent weldability and machining capability, making it ideal for use in industrial and commercial structures. There are four grades: A, B, C, and D.
It is easy to form, machine, and weld. It is a high value general use structural steel.
It is seen in the construction and railroad industries.
It is used in riveted, bolted, and welded construction. This includes for use in bridges, warehouses, tanks, and industrial and commercial structures.
It has good machinability.
It has excellent weldability.
It is heat treatable.

There are four grades of this steel: A, B, C, D. Grades C and D are for structural and general use. For more information about the specifications for these two grades, please see the ATSM standards.
A36 steel has slightly higher ductility and lower strength than A283. When comparing the two, grade C is the most similar in chemical composition.
Grade D shows the highest tensile strength at 415 – 515 MPa.
A283 is only used for general structural purposes, while SA283 meets requirements for use in boiler and vessel plates, in addition to structural applications.
