DILLIMAX 690 PE (EN 1.8879)

DILLIMAX 690 PE (EN 1.8879) introduction

DILLIMAX 690 PE is a high strength quenched and tempered, fine grained steel (through sufficient aluminium content) for pressure equipment with a
minimum yield strength of 690 MPa in its delivered condition (referring to the lowest thickness range). Its mechanical
properties are achieved by water quenching followed by tempering.

DILLIMAX 690 PE (Pressure Equipment) is preferentially used for pressure parts. Its mechanical properties and
analysis are in full compliance with the P690Q (1.8879) according to EN 10028-6.

Equivalent material: EN P690Q, EN 1.8879, DIN P690Q, DIN 1.8879
