Sheet steel grade 65G is extremely common in completely different areas of industry. That is why, if you are in search of suitable rolled metal, you should pay attention to the chemical composition and performance characteristics of the material. Only in this way can you make sure that the steel grade is ideal for your requirements.
You can order 65G steel on the website: https://www.absolut-metall.com.ua/cherniy-metall/listi/list-goryachekataniy/list-goryachekataniy-65g/. You can also get additional advice regarding the characteristics of the material here.
Features of the chemical composition
When analyzing the features of the chemical composition of steel, you should first of all pay attention to its markings. The first number usually indicates the volume of carbon in hundredths of a percent. Further letters indicate the alloying elements used.
Thus, the amount of carbon in steel of this grade is 0.65%, and the alloying element is manganese, the volume of which is about 1.2%. This rolled metal may also contain up to 0.4% silicon.
The use of carbon and alloying elements in such quantities made it possible to create a material that is distinguished by the following basic performance characteristics:
- strength - 65G steel is able to withstand high operating loads, which has allowed the material to gain popularity in various fields of industry;
- tensile resistance and resistance to impact loads - contributes to the fact that the material is used for the manufacture of certain parts;
- viscosity and elasticity are other factors that significantly increase the use of a material under typical operating conditions.
The above characteristics were made possible because manganese was used as an alloying element. It was this substance that made steel more dense, durable and elastic.
Scope of application of steel 65G
Due to its performance characteristics, 65G steel is widely used in completely different fields of activity.
Steel of this grade is especially often used in construction. The material is used where a high level of load of a certain type is expected. Metal is often used to lay railway tracks or create bridges. Steel 65G can be used when laying the foundations of large buildings. Another common use of the material is the laying of utility lines. This brand is used to create pipelines.
The disadvantage of 65G steel is its weldability, so the material is not used in the construction of welding structures. However, hot-rolled steel sheet is often used to create machinery. The material is used to produce nuts, gears and other similar parts that are subject to high loads.
