Navgraha Steels INC supplies ASTM A36 Plates, Sheets & Coils, sourced from leading global mills like Sail, AMNS, JSPL, Evonith, Nippon Yakin, Outokumpu, Special Metals, VDM, and ATI. Known for its excellent weldability, machinability, and cost-effectiveness, ASTM A36 is a general structural quality carbon steel widely used in construction, fabrication, and machinery. Every supply is backed by mill test certificates and export-ready packaging.
In construction, fabrication, and pressure vessel projects, using the wrong grade of steel can lead to structural failures, welding cracks, or costly shutdown delays.
When you’re building bridges, refineries, storage tanks, or machinery, the steel you choose isn’t just a commodity — it’s the foundation of your project’s safety and success.
When you’re sourcing steel coils for fabrication, structures, or tank manufacturing, you cannot afford delays, inconsistent thickness, or missing certifications.
ASTM A36 is a standard specification for carbon structural steel plates under ASTM standards.
Buyers select ASTM A36 when they need reliable, cost-efficient steel for general construction and fabrication.

| Property | Typical Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Tensile Strength | 400–550 MPa | Adequate for structural strength |
| Yield Strength | ≥ 250 MPa | Provides stability in construction |
| Elongation | 18–20% | Ensures ductility for forming |
| Hardness (BHN) | 119–162 | Suitable for machining & welding |
ASTM A36 provides a balance of strength and ductility, making it the go-to structural steel for global projects.
| Element | Max % (Typical) |
|---|---|
| Carbon (C) | 0.25 |
