General Product Description
The high-strength structural steel at 900 MPa
Strenx® 900MC is a hot-rolled structural steel made for cold forming, with a minimum yield strength of 900 MPa.
Strenx® 900MC meets and exceeds the requirements of S900MC in EN 10149-2. These cut-to-length sheets feature excellent thickness accuracy and surface quality in relation to strength level, providing an outstanding finish to the final products. Typical applications include advanced lifting devices and lighter transport solutions and components.
Mechanical Properties
The mechanical properties are tested in the longitudinal direction.
1) If ReH is not applicable then Rp0.2 is used.
2) For both longitudinal and transverse direction.
Impact Properties
1) Impact testing according to EN 10149-2 ( -20 °C /minimum 40J) is available if specified at the time of order.
Impact testing according to EN ISO 148-1 is performed on thicknesses ≥ 5mm. The specified minimum value corresponds to a full-size specimen.
Chemical Composition (ladle analysis)
1) Sum of Nb, V and Ti = max 0.22%.
The steel is grain refined.
Carbon Equivalent CET(CEV)

Fabrication and Other Recommendations
Welding, bending and machining
Strenx® 900MC has good welding, cold forming and cutting performance.
Strenx® 900MC is a cold forming steel not suited for heat treatments at temperatures above 400°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 products.
Ready to upgrade?
Upgrading from Strenx® 900MC to Strenx® 960MC means you can improve the performance and reduce the weight of your equipment. The increase in yield strength allows for a substantial increase in the equipment’s load-bearing capacity. Get in touch with our steel specialists at SSAB Tech Support or SSAB Knowledge Service Center for an update on upgrading.
