hi,
im having trouble finding A36 steel, but can find similar alloys.
although i'm (almost) sure about the answer, i'd like to have a 3rd party insight.
a (thin) A36 sheet doesnt contain
Mn, and
N, but does contain
Si.
my best candidate alternative is
S235JR, which has slightly different components:
- lower C content (0.19% vs 0.26% in A36)
- contains Mn and N
- Doesnt contain Si
- similar levels of S and P, but triple the amount of Cu (0.6% vs 0.2% in A36).
im sure the differences are important in the stractural aspect (which are irrelecant for the pizza), but they raise health concerns due to being use in high heat.
becasue
Mn is used in stainless steel, whish is food safe, i guess it also imply for its safety as a baking steel.
i do have a slight concern with the copper (Cu) content, though the hazard is in high exposure..... but i dont know if 0.6% is high.....
what do you think?
