EN 10149-2 S700MC High Yield Structural Steels application

EN 10149-2 S700MC automotive steel is an ideal high yield structural steel grade which is widely used in steel bridge construction and engineering applications. The EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel is delivered in a quenched and tempered condition with a minimum yield strength of 700 MPa. The range of tensile strength of the EN 10149-2 S700MC structural steel grades is 830–860 MPa, whereas the range of minimum elongation values is 12-13%. The EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel is used for highly stressed parts and structures of large sections, offering the most economical solutions.

S700MC automotive structural steel is suitable for cold-forming and hot-forming processes. Cold-forming process refers to the manufacturing of complex shapes, products with thin-walled sections. The EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel grade can be cold-formed with conventional tooling and on conventional press brakes. This makes the material difference for applications such as drums, retainers, containers, frames, profiles and linings. Hot-forming process refers to the manufacturing of components with more complex shapes. The S700MC automobile structural steel grade can be hot-formed using conventional tooling at a temperature of 1100°C to 900°C.

EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel is ideal for applications requiring considerable strength and elongation due to its high yield strength of 700 MPa. Its tensile strength is also remarkable, ranging from 830–860 MPa, making the material’s application for machinery structures, stiffeners and spacers essential tools for bridge construction and engineering. The EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel gives outstanding formability and consistent welding results as it is easy to weld, with low carbon equivalent. The steel also exhibits excellent tensile properties, making it suitable for engineering applications where lightweight constructions are required.

S700MC high yield structural steel can also be used in applications that require hard wearing with the highest level of strength. The EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel grade is well suited for pipe supports due to its high material strength and corrosion protection. The steel also offers good welding properties which make it suitable for welding in other components and products in corrosion prone environments. S700MC high yield structural automotive steel is the perfect choice for a wide range of engineering and construction applications due to its high level of strength, excellent formability and welding properties.

EN 10149-2 S700MC high yield structural steel is a top choice for modern engineering and construction projects across the globe. Whether it is used for bridges, machinery structures, stiffeners, spacers, pipes, supports, linings or any other applications requiring high strength, EN 10149-2 S700MC grade is sure to deliver outstanding results without compromising on cost or quality.
