Chitsulo cha A588 chimadziwika bwino chifukwa cha kuthekera kwake kwanyengo. Ikakumana ndi zinthu zakunja, zinthu zake zolimbana ndi dzimbiri zimakhala zamphamvu, ngakhale zitapanda penti. Chitsulo cha A588 chimakhala ndi kukana kwa dzimbiri kuwirikiza kanayi ngati chitsulo cha carbon. Ndipo A588 ili ndi ntchito zambiri zomwe zimaphatikizapo nsanja zotumizira ndi mafoni, magalimoto onyamula katundu, mlatho ndi misewu yayikulu ndi ma guardrails chifukwa chodzikonza, patina yachilengedwe ya oxide patina imachepetsa kwambiri kukonza. Chitsulochi chimakhalanso ndi chiŵerengero chabwino kwambiri cha mphamvu ndi kulemera, kukwaniritsa zofunikira za mphamvu za carbon steel pamene chilemera kwambiri.
