Products Description
EN S960QL steel is high strength steel, which provides a minimum yield strength of up to 960 MPa depends on thickness.
EN S960QL steel is usually used for applications where mobile or fixed structures have to carry high loads – often in safety critical situations.
EN S960QL steel enables engineering companies to save significant weight in what they are building.

Grade 960QL is a high strength structural steel in the quenched and tempered condition which gives the material excellent strength and abrasion resistance.

FAQ
Q: What is the equivalent of S960ql?
A: What are S960ql Equivalent Astm? S960ql is a high-strength structural grade. The ASTM S960ql Equivalent is the ASTM Q345 exhibiting outstanding low temperature and cold stamping properties.
Q: What is the yield strength of S960ql?
A: High Yield Strength: S960 steel has a minimum yield strength of 960 MPa, which is significantly higher than standard structural steels. This exceptional strength allows for the construction of lighter and more efficient structures.
