Applicant Field

  • ASTM A500 is the core standard for U.S. cold-formed welded/seamless carbon steel structural square and rectangular tubes, covering steel grades A, B, C, and D. It is characterized by high strength, excellent formability, and superior welding performance, and is widely used in structural engineering projects in North America and international trade.

 

  • Grade D needs heat treament.

 

GRADE

Field
A Shelf columns, door and window frames, handrails and railings, agricultural equipment brackets, simple factory purlins
B Multi-story residential steel frames, shopping mall decorative keel, pipe supports and hangers, small and medium-sized equipment racks
C High-rise industrial building beams and columns, bridge longitudinal and transverse beams, crane runway beams, municipal guardrails, steel structure platforms, seismic supports
D Bridges in cold regions, mining equipment supports, port machinery, auxiliary structures for wind turbine towers, low-temperature storage tank supports

Selection Recommendation

2026010914300587229
  • Prioritize cost and lightweight structure: choose Grade A/B.

 

  • Medium to high strength, industrial/bridge projects: choose Grade C (the most commonly used steel grade)

 

  • For low temperatures (≤-20℃), dynamic loads, or critical structures: choose Grade D.

 

  • Grade A/B focuses on low cost and formability, Grade C focuses on high strength, and Grade D requires heat treatment, with excellent low-temperature toughness, meeting personalized needs for different loads and environments.

 

  • As a mainstream standard for structural engineering in North America, ASTM A500 square and rectangular tubing is recognized by most countries worldwide.
