High-Strength Low-Alloy Structural Carbon Steel (HSLA)
STRENX 700MC STEEL PLATE
700MC steel plate is a high-strength steel belonging to the family of microalloyed structural steels. It is primarily designed for applications that require high mechanical strength and toughness, and it is commonly used in the manufacture of structural components in the automotive and construction industries.
700MC steel is a low-carbon steel with excellent formability and weldability. It is microalloyed to improve its mechanical properties, such as tensile strength. Its high strength and ductility make it ideal for applications where an excellent balance between strength and deformation is required.
- High mechanical strength (min. 700 MPa).
- Excellent formability and weldability.
- Good toughness and impact resistance.
- Suitable for structural applications that require high tensile strength.
- Automotive industry: structural components such as frames and chassis.
- Construction: steel structures and bridges.
- Machinery manufacturing: components that require high structural strength.
