| The SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE steel is the next generation of hot-rolled high-strength low-alloy steels with improved local formability for higher edge ductility and cut-edge quality which leads to greatly improved hole expansion. SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE are especially suitable for operations where high strength in combination with demanding forming is needed where cut edges may limit the forming operation. These next generation steels have a new and closely controlled production method resulting in a fine microstructure and steel and with excellent formability and cut-edge quality. The SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE is less sensitive to tool-settings and -wear, and will deliver an improved cut-edge compared to conventional HSLA grades. This grade is also well suited for forming and bending operations with a bend radius of 0xt and compared to a conventional HSLA grade, the typical hole expansion result is improved with approx. 30 percentage points. SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE will excel when optimizing any fine blanking, stamping or forming operation and will push the limit on how to utilize the benefits of steel. SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE can after agreement be adapted and delivered as dual certified with S550MC according to EN 10149-2. Dimension Range: SSAB Docol HR550Y600T HE is available as Hot-rolled pickled and oiled coil, slit coils and cut to length sheets in thickness of 2.00 - 7.00 mm and widths up to 1600 mm. Length up to 16 meters. Some restrictions may occur, and will be handled on request. Data provided by SSAB. |
