What Are The Features of ASTM A105 Carbon Steel Round Bars?

Let's first take a look at the definition of ASTM A105:

A105 round steel is an American ASTM A105/A105M standard for carbon steel forgings for pipeline components, where A represents ordinary carbon structural steel. Widely used in the manufacturing and production of high-pressure vessels, petrochemical fittings, valves, and flanges. Because this standard only specifies one type of carbon steel forging, A105 is also considered a forged carbon steel grade. A105 is a low-carbon steel forging, similar to 20 # steel. There are two standards, one is the American standard ASTMA105/A105M Carbon Steel Forgings for Pipeline Components, and the other is the Chinese standard GB/T12228-2006 Technical Conditions for Carbon Steel Forgings for General Valves.

Characteristics of ASTM A105

ASTM a105 round rod is a long cylindrical metal rod material with many industrial and commercial applications. The most common application is the shaft. The a105 round steel rod has the characteristics of high dimensional accuracy, strong durability, and high structural strength.

ASTM A105 material can undergo corresponding heat treatment, such as annealing, normalizing or normalizing tempering, or quenching and tempering.

A105 is the ASTM steel forging specification, mainly used for carbon steel forged pipeline components. The type of carbon steel forging alloy involved is a low-carbon, manganese, and silicon steel similar to AISI 1330, but with a lower manganese content.
