Get to know MS plate ASTM A283 grade D properties
MS plate ASTM A283 grade D is intermediate tensile strength carbon steel plate. It is defined in ASTM A283 standard. So ASTM A283 grade D properties can be found in the standard. MS plate ASTM A283 grade D is relatively higher in strength than A283 grade C steel of the same standard.
MS plate ASTM A283 grade D properties:
| ASTM A283 grade D properties | Value |
| Tensile strength, ksi [MPa] | 60-80 [415-550] |
| Yield point, min, ksi [Mpa] | 33 [230] |
| Elongation in 8 in. [200 mm], min, % | 20 |
| Elogination in 2 in. [50mm], min, % | 23 |
For MS plate ASTM A283 grade D wider than 24 in. [600 mm], the elgonation requirement is reduced 2%.
Based on ASTM A283 grade D properties and so on characteristics, MS plate ASTM A283 grade D is for general intermediate strength applications. MS plate ASTM A283 grade D is always used in the manufacture of storage tanks and low pressure, temperature controlled vessels.
