Product Details
Amstrong® high strength steels are characterised by high ductility, controlled internal purity, fine grain structure, and low carbon content. These grades are therefore an excellent choice for reducing structural thickness and weight whilst improving load-bearing capacity - thereby generating cost savings.
Applications in construction include:
- Racking systems (e.g. for automated high-bay warehouses) and profiled shelving
- Safety barriers
- Wind towers
- Street lighting poles
More competitive and safer racking systems: Amstrong® products are a perfect alternative to standard structural steel grades to create low maintenance racking systems, which are very cost effective over their entire lifetime.
Technical information
Amstrong® high strength steels are available as thermomechanically hot rolled, cold formable grades.
Amstrong® steel grades range from 240MC to 600MC and are available as mill finish coils or pickled and oiled. All steel grades are available in thicknesses over 2 mm and widths up to 2000 mm.
Properties include:
- High yield strength
- Excellent formability, ductility, and bendability
- Toughness at low temperatures
- Fatigue resistance
- Weight reduction potential
- Low maintenance
- Good weldability
Amstrong® grades meet the requirements of EN 10149-2.
