3/8" Carbon Steel Plate

CSN/Usiminas Quality and Traceability Certification. A 3/8" carbon steel plate ASTM A36 (9.53 mm) is a hot-rolled thick plate Widely used in structural and mechanical applications requiring strength, durability, and excellent welding and forming performance. Manufactured according to standards. ASTM A36 e NBR 6650It is a versatile and economical material, ideal for infrastructure projects, industrial manufacturing, and heavy boiler making.

Technical characteristics of 3/8" A36 Carbon Steel Sheet

With a nominal thickness of 9.53 mm (or 10 mm), a A36 thick sheet It offers an excellent balance between strength and formability. The process of hot rolling It gives the steel a uniform structure, excellent ductility, and a surface finish suitable for painting, galvanizing, or machining. The material is easily cut, bent, and welded, making it ideal for structural metal components.
