Hindustan Steel Corporation is a trusted exporter of ASTM A36 structural steel plates to South Africa, serving construction, fabrication, energy, and infrastructure sectors. As a leading supplier in India, we provide cut-to-size A36 plates, custom thicknesses, and mill-tested quality at competitive export pricing. With decades of experience in global structural steel trade, we ensure timely delivery to ports across South Africa including Durban, Johannesburg, and Cape Town.
Whether you’re building warehouses, bridges, industrial sheds, or agricultural structures, our A36 steel plates offer the strength, weldability, and economy your project needs—backed by MTCs and export documentation.
ASTM A36 is a low-carbon structural steel grade known for its ductility, formability, and weldability, commonly used across global markets. It is governed by ASTM International’s standards and is often used in plates, bars, beams, and angles.
In South Africa, A36 is widely used due to its cost-efficiency, reliable strength, and easy machinability, especially for building frames, machinery, containers, and pipelines. Many buyers prefer A36 for general structural fabrication and medium-load applications, where high strength with low alloy cost is a critical factor.
ASTM A36 plates find widespread use across industries in South Africa, especially in:
As a stockist and exporter, we cater to OEMs, EPC contractors, infrastructure companies, and bulk steel buyers across South Africa.
Below are the key mechanical characteristics of ASTM A36 structural plates:
These properties make A36 ideal for medium-strength structural work where cost and fabrication flexibility matter.
