This grade is superior for its strength and durability, necessary for ships that travel in arctic and deep-sea conditions. ABS-certified, EH36 is used by leading shipbuilders and offshore project developers. Luke Steel guarantees each sheet meets stringent international standards, providing performance, durability, and long-term value in structural uses at sea and coastal building construction.
ABS EH36 is an improved variant of AH36 with improved toughness. It contains ~0.18–0.22% Carbon, ~0.5–0.6% Manganese, and microalloying constituents such as Niobium or Vanadium. It possesses a yield strength of ≥355 MPa and tensile strength of 490–620 MPa. EH36 is specially formulated to maintain impact strength at subzero temperatures (-40°C) and is applicable for arctic use. It is supplied in normalized or thermomechanically rolled conditions for optimal structural performance.

EH36 applies to ship hulls and superstructures that traverse polar seas or experience heavy ice conditions. It is also employed in offshore oil rigs, float LNG tankers, and heavy-duty sea transport. It is also applied in dock structural frameworks, cranes, and heavy port equipment. Its strength at sub-zero temperatures and enhanced fatigue resistance qualify it to use where structural integrity cannot be compromised.
