What are the characteristics of medium and thick plate, S460M plate? First, the performance of shock resistance and vibration is very good, so the application of medium and thick plates in buildings and bridges can greatly improve the safety. Second, the bearing capacity of medium and thick plate, S460M plate is good, the performance is excellent. The bridge, the automobile girder steel plate, and buildings have strict load-bearing requirements, and it is easy to cause accidents if the steel materials not meet the requirements, so the selection of steel is more stringent.

The company's headquarters has a well-established logistics distribution system, which can quickly transport the steel materials to the port through the contracted logistics companies. Professional contracted logistics companies can significantly reduce costs and various commodity-related expenses. Meanwhile, the flexible transfer ensures that the S460M plate steel materials can be shipped immediately after passing the quality inspection.

S460M plate, Q345B steel is high strength low alloy HSLA steel. Due to the addition of alloy elements, the yield strength of Q345B and so on HSLA steel is 25% - 150% higher than that of carbon structural steel with the same carbon content. Using HSLA structural steel instead of carbon structural steel can reduce the self weight of the structure, save metal materials and extend the service life of the structure.
