Answers

  • Storage and transportation of color-coated steel sheets?

    Transportation:
    1. During transportation, maintain the original packaging in its factory condition and do not open it arbitrarily.
    2. Keep the inside of the transport vehicle clean and use rubber mats to prevent dents or damage to the packaging.
    3. The coils should be securely fastened to prevent damage or accidents caused by movement or rolling during transportation.
    4. Do not drag the color steel sheets; otherwise, burrs will cause surface scratches.
    5. Clamp the steel coils on both sides with wooden pads, or secure them to the vehicle with chains or wire.
    6. Use anti-slip materials such as sheet metal or straw mats inside the truck bed. Steel straps (height greater than 2.5 times width) must be bundled into two bundles.
    7. Use suction cups or soft slings during handling to avoid direct contact between the steel wire ropes and the sheet surface.

    Loading and Unloading:
    1. Use anti-slip materials inside the truck bed according to the weight of the steel coils; load horizontally, spreading evenly inside the truck from the rear to the middle.
    2. Use rubber mats between the lifting equipment and the product to prevent collisions.
    3. Do not stack.


  • What are the common general-purpose grades of carbon steel pipes?

    Internationally, carbon steel plates primarily adhere to mainstream standard systems from the United States, Europe, and Japan. The American ASTM A36 is a common general-purpose structural steel with excellent weldability and formability, widely used in construction and bridges. High-quality carbon steels typically use the AISI/SAE series, such as AISI 1020 or 1045, for manufacturing mechanical components. Structural steels like S235 and S355 in the European standard system, where the numbers denote minimum yield strength, are commonly employed in various engineering projects. Japanese designations like SS400 (structural steel) and S45C (mechanical structural steel) are also widely circulated in Asia. Additionally, specialized grades exist for specific applications, such as pressure vessel steel ASTM A516 and cryogenic steel ASTM A537, meeting stringent requirements in energy, chemical, and other sectors.
