A285 Gr.C plate for storage tanks

A285 Gr.C plate is a low to intermediate tensile strength carbon steel plate used primarily in the fabrication of storage tanks and other similar applications. The material provides good weldability and toughness at low temperatures, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.

The chemical composition of A285 Gr.C plate includes carbon, manganese, silicon, and sulfur, with a maximum carbon content of 0.28%. A285 Gr.C steel material has a minimum yield strength of 30 ksi (or 205 MPa) and a minimum tensile strength of 55 ksi (or 380 MPa).

A285 Gr.C steel is typically used in the construction of pressure vessels and storage tanks that require low to intermediate tensile strength materials. It is also suitable for use in low-pressure storage tanks where the operating temperature does not exceed 212°F (or 100℃)

Overall, A285 Gr.C plate is a reliable and cost-effective option for the fabrication of storage tanks and other similar applications that require low to intermediate strength carbon steel plates.
