Amstrong® 355MC
Amstrong® 355MC introduction
Amstrong® 355MC characterised by high ductility, controlled internal purity, fine grain structure and low carbon content. On request, Amstrong® may be delivered with an improved surface finish on black hot-rolled product called MASC (Micro Adhesive Scale). Contact our commercial teams for further information.
It combines:
Outstanding mechanical properties
High strength
Toughness
Fatigue resistance
Good formability
Good weldability
With its high strength, it is an excellent choice when weight-saving is a priority, and is frequently used to replace structural steels.
Equivalent material: EN S355MC, SEW QstE 380TM, UNE AE340HC, AFNOR E355D, BS HR43, BS F35, ASTM A1011 HSLAS-F Grade 50 Class 2
