ASTM A653
A653 is the standard specification for mild steel, low carbon product grade. It has excellent welding capabilities and is easy to machine, cut and form.
A653 is typically manufactured in parts that do not require high strength. This may include clamps, truck bed components, tool boxes, dumpsters, outdoor signage, building fixtures and outdoor hardware.
GNEE STEEL offers ASTM A653 in various thicknesses of galvanized and alloyed galvanized forms.
Cold Working ASTM A653 is a galvanized steel that is cold rolled to its final dimensions and surface finish. The process improves strength, surface quality and dimensional accuracy compared to hot-rolled steel. Cold worked ASTM A653 has good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for a variety of outdoor and industrial applications.
GNEE STEEL offers cold worked ASTM A653 galvanized sheet. The boards are available in a variety of sizes, with thicknesses ranging from 16, 18 and 20 gauge, and widths up to 48x48 inches. Contact us for additional information on material specific dimensions and tolerances.
