Micro-Alloy Steels – Conventional, Low Alloy Carbon, Low Alloy High Strength HSLA Micro-Alloy Steels

Product Introduction:

High strength low alloy steel, which is also called “micro-alloy steel”, is prepared by adding a small amount of alloy elements such as vanadium, columbium and titanium, and has advantages over ordinary carbon steel. Micro-Alloy Steels entered the world industry in the late 1960s and can be considered a type of low-alloy steel with high strength. The most important advantage of microalloy steels is the reduction of energy consumption and cost in production, especially in the car manufacturing. In industries where weight reduction is a priority (such as the automotive industry), the use of Micro-Alloy Steels is more common. The strength of the product made with these materials varies from 415 to 825 MPa without heat treatment. Due to the fact that Micro-Alloy Steels

are used in narrower metal parts, corrosion causes a significant reduction in strength of these types of metals.

Technical Specifications:

* Low alloy

* Sensitive to temperature

* Relatively high complexity
