Bethlehem Steel ASTM A514 Grade B 1/4 to 1-1/4 in. thick, steel plate (discontinued **)
Categories:	Metal; Ferrous Metal; Alloy Steel; Low Alloy Steel; ASTM Steel; Carbon Steel; Low Carbon Steel
Material Notes:	A514 is an alloy steel grade, fully killed, fine grain. It is heat treated by quenching and tempering. The specification permits 18 compositions, of which Bethlehem produces Grades B, H and P. Its normal uses are industrial applications where high strength, low weight and high impact values are required. Machinery, mining equipment and other demanding applications. The following are suggested consumables for arc welding processes for 0.476 - 6.35 cm (3/16 - 2.5 in.) thicknesses: For Manual Shielded Metal-Arc (AWS A5.5) use Low Hydrogen Electrodes E11015, E11016, and E11018. For Submerged Arc (AWS A5.23) use F11x-Exxx. For Gas Metal-Arc (AWS A5.28) use ER110S. For Flux Cored-Arc (AWS A5.29) use E11xT.
