A high copper low alloy steel sheet made by the steps comprising preparing a molten melt producing an as-cast low alloy steel comprising by weight, between 0.02% and 0.3% carbon, between 0.10% and 1.5% manganese, between 0.01% and 0.5% silicon, between 0.002 and 0.0095% sulfur, greater than 0.01% and less than or equal to 0.15% phosphorus, less than 0.05% aluminum, more than 0.20% copper, less than 0.03% tin, and less than 0.10% nickel, and the remainder iron and impurities resulting from melting, and solidifying the molten melt into sheet less than 10 mm in thickness in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to below 1080° C. The copper content may be between 0.2% and 2.0% by weight. The high copper low alloy steel may also have a corrosion index (I) of at least 6.0 in accordance with ASTM G101 where: I=26.01 (% Cu)+3.88 (% Ni)+1.20 (% Cr)+1.49 (% Si)+17.28 (% P)-7.29 (% Cu)(% Ni)-9.10 (% Ni)(% P)-33.39 (% Cu)<SUP>2</SUP>. The high copper low alloy steel may be produced by twin roll casting, and may have thickness less than 5 mm or less than 2 mm in thickness. |
