In Houston, at Luke Steel, we provide higher quality ABS DH36 Shipbuilding Steel Sheets and Plates that enjoy good weldability, durability, and strength in adverse marine environments. ABS fully certified, DH36 is ideal for high stress service in shipbuilding and offshore engineering. We offer flexible delivery and fabrication solutions to shipyards, oil rigs, and infrastructure constructions. Luke Steel aims to supply reliable, high-quality material that meets international marine standards for safety and quality.
ABS DH36 has ~0.18–0.22% Carbon, with Manganese and Silicon, and microalloying elements for better toughness. It has a yield strength ≥355 MPa and tensile strength of 490–620 MPa. DH36 has good resistance to impact at -20°C, which is why it is used in cold sea climates. It is usually supplied in normalized or controlled-rolled condition to provide maximum mechanical performance and structural integrity.

DH36 is employed extensively for the construction of medium and large commercial vessels, tankers, and offshore platforms. It is best suited for bottom hull plates and other regions that experience high pressure and impact. The excellent mechanical properties of the steel also enable applications in dry docks, floating production facilities, and marine cranes. In applications outside the marine industry, DH36 finds application in port facilities and industrial fabrication demanding higher performance in corrosive environments.
