DI-MC 500 B (EN S500M)
DI-MC 500 B (EN S500M) introduction
DI-MC 500 is a thermomechanically rolled, fine grained structural steel with minimum yield strength of
500 MPa in its delivery condition ex works (referring to the lowest thickness range). It fulfils the requirements
of EN 10025-4.
Due to its chemical composition, this material has a low carbon equivalent and hence excellent weldability. The
steel is preferentially used by the customers in constructional steelwork, hydraulic steelwork, mechanical
engineering, storage tanks or spheres, where exacting demands are placed on weldability despite the application
of higher strength steels.
