What is the S960Q steel?

Standard: EN 10025-6
Equivalent: TStE960V
Size: plate thickness up to 150mm
Delivery status: quenching + tempering (quenched and tempered)
 
S960Q material is a European standard quenched and tempered high yield strength structural steel. S stands for structural steel, Q stands for delivery conditions, and 960 stands for yield value in MPa.
 

S960Q steel plate characteristics:

S960Q steel adopts controlled rolling technology. It can be seen from the chemical composition of the steel that the content of harmful elements S and P is relatively low, indicating that its steel is pure and has good welding performance.
 
S960Q steel plate welding performance
The steel specified in EN 10025-6 is not only dependent on the material during and after the process of different welding processes and the welding behavior of steel, but also on the size, shape, and manufacturing and component use conditions. Therefore, the weldability is not unlimited.
 

S960Q steel plate application range

EN 10025-6 S960Q steel plate is mainly used to manufacture low-temperature resistant, high-strength key components, construction machinery, mining machinery structures, etc. It is a high-strength structural steel plate. Manufacturing plants, general construction and various engineering machinery, such as drilling rigs, electric shovel, electric wheel dump trucks, mining cars, excavators, loaders, bulldozers, various cranes, coal mine hydraulic supports, etc. for mining and various engineering constructions Mechanical equipment and other structural parts.
