A36 Carbon Steel Coil

A36 Carbon Steel Coil
A36 Carbon Steel Coil is a widely used, affordable, low-carbon steel defined by its mechanical properties (min 36 ksi yield strength), ideal for structural builds like bridges, buildings, tanks, and machinery due to excellent weldability, machinability, and formability, often supplied as hot-rolled coils for general fabrication and construction where strength and versatility are key.

Product Introduction


A36 carbon steel coil is one of the most widely used carbon steel products in the world. Known for its affordability, excellent weldability, machinability, and structural strength, A36 is a staple material across construction, manufacturing, automotive, shipbuilding, and more. In coil form, A36 steel is ideal for sheet metal fabrication, cold-forming applications, and automated processing lines.

A36 is a low-carbon structural steel grade defined by ASTM International (formerly American Society for Testing and Materials) under specification ASTM A36/A36M. The “A36” designation signifies:

  • A: Ferrous material

  • 36: Minimum yield strength of 36 ksi (250 MPa)

It’s known as a mild steel due to its low carbon content, which makes it easy to weld, cut, form, and machine.
