Steel Plates

Weathering steel, is atmospheric corrosion resistance steel, also known by corten steel. It is the material that between normal carbon steel and stainless steel and with low alloy content. So corten steel is the carbon steel that added with copper (low Cu), Chrome (low Cr) elements, these elements exist to bring anti-corrosion performances. Besides, it […]

Plasma cutting technology used a lot in steel and metal cutting processes, especially when integrated with CNC plasma arc cutting. So how much do you know about this cutting technology? And how is the differences between other metal cutting methods. Below articles we will tell you all the tips and guide if you need this […]

Waterjet cutting is to use high pressure water to cut or profiling steels and especially for highly brittle materials. It delivers smooth and precise cuts through the mechanical sawing action. This is a versatile process in that it cuts through almost every material. Octal provides customize waterjet cutting services according client requirements. Things you should […]

Flame cutting (also known as oxy fuel cutting), it is to use the heat burned from oxy fuel gas, to cut steel materials or the hard metals to the panels or profiles required. It can cut steel thickness from 1 mm to 1200 mm. And in most cases it used to cut steel plate thickness […]

Laser cut metal is a processed metal by laser cutting technology. Metal materials mainly types in sheet metal (steel plate) and fabricated in carbon, alloy or stainless steel. About laser cutting Laser cutting is to cut different materials especially steel metals with the help of laser beam. It is majorly used for industrial manufacturing applications, […]

ASTM A36 steel plate and beams has been deemed as top rated materials in construction activities and structural building. Therefore, how come it gets so popular in different industries? Why there were so many people buying this material? So today we are going to introduce this magic material – ASTM A36 Steel plate. For your […]

Carbon steel plates are generally defined as flat steel products with carbon as the principal alloying element and only limited amounts of other alloying elements. The main controlled elements typically include carbon (C), manganese (Mn), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), and silicon (Si), while other elements such as aluminum (Al), chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), […]

API 650 is the principal standard for welded, vertical, cylindrical aboveground tanks used to store oil and other liquids at approximately atmospheric pressure. It establishes requirements for tank materials, shell and bottom design, welding, inspection, testing, and fabrication documentation. Its general provisions apply to non-refrigerated service at design temperatures up to 93°C (200°F), while Annex […]
