Delamination damage of SA514 grade B steel material

SA514 grade B steel material, low alloy high strength steel has good weldability. Welding is the most common method to construct engineering structure, so the steel used in engineering structure requires good welding performance. Low alloy high strength steel has low carbon content, low alloy element content and good plasticity, so it is not easy to produce quenching structure and crack in the weld area, and the addition of Ti, Nb, V can also inhibit the grain growth in the weld area. Therefore, most of the low alloy high strength steels have excellent welding performance and no heat treatment is required after welding.

On Jan. 31, 2019, BBN steel held the annual meeting with all employees, family members, and friends. It is a moment of joyand it is a moment to summarize the past and look forward.Looking back on 2018, BBN steel exported SA514 grade B steel material more than 2 million tons of steel materials to all parts of the world and made outstanding contributions to infrastructure construction at home and abroad. In 2019, BBN steel will make persistent efforts and forge ahead.

Composition characteristics of SA514 grade B steel material product: (1) Low carbon: Due to high requirements for toughness, weldability and cold formability, its carbon content does not exceed 0.20%. 2) Add manganese-based alloying elements. 3) Adding auxiliary elements such as niobium, titanium or vanadium: a small amount of niobium, titanium or vanadium forms fine carbides or carbonitrides in the steel, which is beneficial to obtain fine ferrite grains and improve the strength and toughness of the steel.

The advantages of SA514 grade B steel material, seamless steel pipe are high pressure resistance, good toughness, long pipe section and few joints. It is widely used and the rolling technology of domestic steel mills is also very mature. Compared with round steel, the weight of seamless steel pipe is lighter under the same strength. Seamless steel pipe manufacturing ring parts, can improve the utilization of materials, simplify the manufacturing process, save materials and processing time. Compared with the welded pipe, there is no weld on the outer surface of seamless steel pipe, and it has good compression resistance.
