Tolerances

Hot rolled (UC): Tolerances in accordance to EN 10051.

Thickness tolerances 1/2 of EN 10051 category D.

Customized dimensional and shape tolerances are available upon request.

Surface Treatments

Uncoated (UC): available as rolled or pickled and oiled or pickled-dry. As pickled and oiled and pickled-dry up to 5mm thickness.

All surface treatments are in accordance with RoHS directive (2011/65/EU) and do not contain Chromium VI (Cr6+). Surface treatments provide only temporary surface protection during transportation and storage. In order to avoid corrosion damages, care must be taken to keep the products dry during transportation and storage. If they become wet, they must be separated and situated so that they are dried quickly.

Delivery Conditions

Docol S960MC is supplied in as rolled surface condition or as pickled surface condition. The product is thermomechanically rolled.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining

Docol S960MC has good welding, cold forming and cutting performance.

Docol S960MC is a cold forming steel not suited for use at temperatures above 400°C since the material may then lose its guaranteed properties.

For information concerning fabrication, see SSAB´s brochures on www.ssab.com or consult Tech Support.

Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when bending, welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the products.
