General Product Description

The high-strength structural steel at 600 MPa

Strenx® 650 MC is a hot-rolled structural steel made for cold forming, with a minimum yield strength of 650 MPa for stronger and lighter structures. Strenx® 650 MC meets or exceeds the requirements of S650MC in EN 10149-2.

Typical applications include a wide range of components and parts, such as demanding load-bearing structures. Strenx 650 MC comes in coils, slit coils or cut-to-length sheets.

Dimension Range

Strenx® 650 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. On thicknesses >8 mm the minimum yield strength may be 20MPa lower.

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.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining

Strenx® 650 MC has good welding, cold forming and cutting performance.

Strenx® 650 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.
