High Strength Steel Plate - Solsteel

alform®

High Strength and Ultra high Strength Sheet and Plate

steels are thermo-mechanically rolled, weldable fine grain structural steels with excellent cold-forming behaviour, perfect for applications wherever high plasticity coupled with high strength and light-weight design are in demand.

The central objective in light-weight design is to achieve

• High-performance parts with decreased material thicknesses
• Increased strength with unchanged dimensions

Benefits in detail

Replacing conventional structural steels with High-Strength and Ultra-High-Strength steels results in unchanged load capacities while achieving a reduction in material thickness of up to 70%. Significant thickness reductions are possible even under difficult load conditions, making High Strength and Ultra-High-Strength steels the key to successful light-weight design. Reduced material thicknesses and lower weights lead to cost-effective production and lower operating costs.

Product Benefits:

• Higher lifting and load capacity
• Optimized workability
• Higher wear resistance
• Reduced costs
• Improved environmental compatibility
• Increased payload
• Excellent cold formability
• Edging radii smaller than those of standard steels of comparable strength
• Excellent weldability
• Amount of pre-heating either reduced or completely eliminated
• Clean surface resulting from fine and homogeneous secondary scale
• Lower fuel consumption

Areas of application:

Dump Trucks, Mobile Cranes, Loaders, Industrial Trucks, Bulldozers, Excavators, Forestry Machinery, Buckets, Cranes, Port Equipment and Lifting Equipment.
