EN 10268 Grade HC500LA
EN 10268 Grade HC500LA introduction
This high strength steel is characterised by their low content of both carbon and micro-alloying elements. This gives HSLA steels outstanding functional properties, such as weldability and coatability. The hardening achieved by controlled internal purity and fine grain size structure ensures excellent mechanical strength. The grade available is in compliance with EN 10268:2006+A1:2013 and are obtained after either batch or continuous annealing. The grade with yield strength ≥ 460 MPa are only produced by the continuous annealing process.
