Description

ABS AH36 Shipbuilding Marine Plate - High Strength Steel for Offshore and Marine Structures

ABS AH36 steel plate is a high-strength structural steel certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).

It is widely used in shipbuilding, marine fabrication, offshore oil platforms, and deep-sea vessel construction due to its excellent toughness, corrosion resistance, and weldability.

Key Features of ABS AH36 Shipbuilding Marine Plate

Grade: AH36 – Part of ABS steel grade A/B/D/E/AH36/DH36/EH36
High Yield Strength: Minimum 355 MPa
Tensile Strength: 490 – 620 MPa
Excellent Impact Resistance – Tested at -20°C
Good Weldability – Suitable for heavy-duty marine applications
Corrosion Resistance – Ideal for saltwater and offshore environments

Applications of ABS AH36 Steel Plate

ABS AH36 plate is used in below applications:

Ship hull structures
Bulk carriers & tankers
Marine engineering & repair works
Jack-up rigs and oil platforms
Naval architecture & cargo vessels

Why choose ABS AH36 Marine Plate over Mild Steel Plates ?

When it comes to marine and offshore structures, choosing the right steel grade is critical. While Mild Steel may be suitable for general applications, ABS AH36 shipbuilding Marine Steel Plate offers several key advantages for demanding environments.

Higher Strength and Load-Bearing Capacity
AH36 Marine Plate has a yield strength of 355 MPa , significantly higher than Mild Steel around 250MPa.
Suitable for heavy-duty ship structures, hulls and offshore rigs where structural integrity is crucial.
Certified for Marine Use by ABS
AH36 is certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), meeting strict maritime safety standards.
Mild Steel is not marine-grade certified, making it unsuitable for classification society-approved vessels.
Superior Toughness in Low-Temperature Environments
AH36 is impact-tested at -20 degree celcius, ensuring resilience in cold seas and offshore environments.
Mild Steel may become brittle in sub-zero conditions, increasing the risk of structural failure.
Enhance Corrosion Resistance
Designed for Saltwater Environments, AH36 offers better long-term performance.
Mild Steel requires more maintenance or coatings to prevent rusting in marine exposure.

Better Weldability for Large Fabrication Projects
AH36 is optimized for high-quality welds, even in thick sections, ideal for shipbuilding.
Mild Steel may warp or weaken when welded in large-scale structures.

Conclusion of the Comparison between AH36 Shipbuilding Plates and Mild Steel Plates

Feature	ABS AH36 Plate	Mild Steel Plate
Yield Strength	355 MPa	~250 MPa
ABS Marine Certified	Yes	No
Impact Resistance	High (-20°C tested)	Low
Corrosion Resistance	High	Low (needs coating)
Weldability	Excellent	Good (but less robust)

Comparision between AH36 and EH36 Marine Shipbuilding Steel Plate

When it comes to marine steel grade selection, E Steel Material AH36 and EH36 comes into consideration.

AH36 vs EH36 – When Should You Choose Each Marine Steel Grade?

AH36 and EH36 are both high-strength structural marine steels certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS).
They belong to the same family (A/B/D/E/AH/DH/EH grades), but differ in their impact toughness requirements, especially in low-temperature environments.

Choose AH36 Shipbuilding Marine Plates if
You’re building general marine structures like:

Commercial ship hulls
Cargo vessels and barges
Offshore support vessels
Deckhouses, internal stiffeners, and bulkheads

Your project operates in moderate climate conditions (e.g., tropical or warm seas)
You require good strength and basic cold resistance (impact tested at –20°C)

Choose EH36 Shipbuilding Marine Plates if
You need extra toughness for extreme cold temperatures, such as:

Arctic vessels
LNG carriers
Icebreakers
Offshore rigs in cold regions (North Sea, Arctic Ocean)

Your structure is exposed to high-stress or low-temperature impact conditions
EH36 is impact-tested at –40°C, providing better fracture resistance under cold shock
You require enhanced safety margins in demanding environments

A conclusion between AH36 and EH36 Marine Plates :

Use AH36 for standard shipbuilding and tropical marine environments.
Choose EH36 for high-risk zones, low-temperature oceans, or offshore energy structures that demand superior impact resistance.
