Strenx® 100 XF is available with different levels of Si: from max 0.03%, up to max 0.28%. Max Si 0.03% is the standard version that is suitable for hot dip galvanizing with thin Zinc layers, and for products that will not be galvanized. If the material is to be hot-dip galvanized and a thicker Zinc layer is requested, this must be specified at the time of order.

1) Sum of Nb, V and Ti = max 0.22%.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining

Strenx® 100 XF has good welding, cold forming and cutting performance. Strenx® 100 XF is a cold forming steel not suited for heat treatments at temperatures above 1080°F (580°C) since the material then may 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 product.
