e470 steel tube and hollow bar

e470 Steel & e470 Hollow Bar

High tensile strength, good machinability and weldability.

19MnVS6/280T/X according to EN10267 may with its generous chemical analysis and moderate mechanical requirements host a number of grades.  All variants are microalloyed with vanadium which gives a fine grain size and a good start for excellent toughness. The most frequent usage is as rolled, but all members in the family may be heat-treated in different ways. A heat-treatment will naturally affect the mechanical properties.

DIRECT COST EFFICIENCY

The material starts with a yield strength of minimum 400 MPa and finishes at minimum 520 MPa where each variant is carefully balanced to give the desired properties without a wasteful addition of alloying elements. Weldability goes from excellent to good with increasing alloying content and yield strength.

19MnV6* is a micro alloyed steel with high tensile strength, good machinability and weldability.
