ASTM / ASTM A / SA 516 – Test Certs

		Our steels: A 516 \| A516+HIC \| A516+NACE \| A387 other steels \| economic news

We sell the best quality European steel. On this page we have summarised several sample test certificates for A/SA516 in grade 60 and grade 70. Sample MTC's are available on request to help you ensure that you get the right quality steel for your project.

Because there is variability between plates and heats of the chemical and physical characteristics of the steel it is usually possible to select plates that meet your specific requirements. For example if you require plates with a very low Phosphorous content or a maximum CEV we are able to help.
