Overview of A516GR70 Steel Plate
A516GR70 is a carbon steel plate for medium and low temperature pressure vessels, widely used in the petroleum, chemical, and power industries. As a foreign trade product, understanding its export packaging standards is crucial for ensuring the safe transportation of goods.

Export packaging standards requirements
1.Basic packaging form
Open packaging: Suitable for large quantities and short-distance transportation, and rust prevention treatment is required.
Packaging: The steel plates are stacked and then bound together with steel bands, with protective corners added at both ends.
Boxed: The precision instruments are packed in wooden or iron boxes.
Pallet packaging: Designed for efficient handling by forklifts, with each pallet weighing no more than 2 tons.

2. Rust prevention protection
Apply rust oil or rust inhibitor
Wrap with VCI rust-proof paper or film

3. Label Requirements
Clear shipping mark identification (such as contract number, material, specification, weight, etc.)

Common Problems and Solutions
Question: Rusting of steel plate edges during shipping
Solution: Enhance edge protection by using special anti-rust edge strips.

Question: The broken steel band caused the steel plates to scatter.
Solution: Increase the number of steel bands and use stronger binding straps.

Question: There are differences between the third-party test results and the factory test results.
Solution: Uniformly standardize the testing methods and standards in advance. If necessary, conduct a comparison of the testing methods.
