Ideal for tubular structures and poles, ASTM A871 is a structural steel with corrosion resistant properties.
ASTM A871/A871M is divided into four levels (I, II, III, IV) according to it's property of the weathering resistance.ASTM A871/A871M belongs to high tensile low alloy steel material, which usually used in the construction, building, bridge.
Overview
1. Ideal structural steel for tubular structures and poles.
2. Available in two grades: 60 and 65.
3. It can be made to three types of chemical requirements: Type I, Type II and Type IV.
4. May be provided as-rolled, normalized or quenched and tempered.
5. Has atmospheric corrosion resistance and can be used in bare or unpainted conditions.
6. Thicknesses greater than 1 1/4" may be special ordered, but are not regularly stocked in our distribution centers.
