ASTM A500 / A500M Grade D

Chemical Properties

Analysis	Carbon, maxA	Manganese , maxA	Phosphorus , maxA	Sulfur , maxA	Copper , maxB

Note A: For each reduction of 0.01 percentage point below the specified maximum for carbon, an increase of 0.06 percentage point above the specified maximum for manganese is permitted, up to a maximum of 1.50 % by heat analysis and 1.60 % by product analysis. Note B: If copper-containing steel is specified in the purchase order.

Mechanical Properties

Structural Tubing	Tensile Strength, min, ksi [MPa]	Yield Strength, min, ksi [MPa]	Elongation in 2 in. min, %

Note B: Applies to specified wall thicknesses (t ) equal to or greater than 0.180 in. [4.57 mm]. For lighter specified wall thicknesses, the minimum elongation values shall be calculated by the formula: percent elongation in 2 in. [50 mm] = 61t + 12, rounded to the nearest percent. For A500M use the following formula: 2.4t + 12, rounded to the nearest percent.
