The high-strength structural steel at 600 MPa
Strenx® 600 MC is a hot-rolled structural steel made for cold forming, with a minimum yield strength of 600 MPa for stronger and lighter structures. Strenx® 600 MC meets or exceeds the requirements of S600MC in EN 10149-2.
Typical applications include a wide range of components and parts, such as demanding load-bearing structures. Strenx 600 MC comes in coils, slit coils or cut-to-length sheets.
Strenx® 600 MC is available in thicknesses of 2.00-10.00 mm and widths up to 1600 mm as coils, slit coils or cut to length sheets in lengths up to 16 meters.
1) If ReH is not applicable then Rp0.2 is used.
2) A80 value applies for thicknesses < 3.00 mm
3) A5 value applies for thicknesses ≥ 3.00 mm
4) For both longitudinal and transverse direction.
The mechanical properties are tested in the longitudinal direction.
1) Impact testing according to EN ISO 148-1 is performed on thicknesses ≥ 6mm. The specified minimum value corresponds to a full-size specimen.
1) If the material is to be hot-dip galvanized according to category A or category B in EN 10149-2 this must be specified at the time of order.Other galvanizing classes with higher Si-content are available after agreement.
2) Sum of Nb, V and Ti = max 0.22%.
The steel is grain refined.
Tolerances according to Strenx® Thickness Guarantees. Strenx® Guarantees offer considerably narrower thickness tolerances compared to EN 10 051.
Width and length tolerances according to SSAB standard. The SSAB standard offer narrower width and length tolerances compared to EN 10 051. Length tolerances only applyfor cut to length sheets
Tolerances according to EN 10 051. Narrower tolerances according to the SSAB standard are available on request.
Tolerances according to Strenx® Flatness Guarantees Class A. Strenx® Flatness Guarantees offer narrower tolerances compared to EN 10 051. Flatness guarantees only applyfor cut to length sheets.
Thermomechanically Rolled. Strenx® MC is available in as rolled or pickled surface condition with mill or cut edge.
Strenx® 600 MC has good welding, cold forming and cutting performance.
Strenx® 600 MC is a cold forming steel not suited for heat treatments at temperatures above 580°C since the material then may lose its guaranteed properties.
For information concerning fabrication, see SSAB´s brochures on www.ssab.com or consult our Tech Support, [email protected]. Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when bending, welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the product.
