Grades & Standards Steel Grades High Strength Steel Ympress 100 XF
Ympress 100 XF
Ympress 100XF combines high strength with precision performance for applications that demand more from every pound of steel. With a minimum tensile strength of 110 ksi and exceptional formability, it enables lighter, more efficient designs without compromising durability. Its clean surface quality, low carbon equivalent, and consistent properties make it easy to form, weld, and paint. Backed by Steel Warehouse’s processing expertise and metallurgical support, Ympress 100XF helps manufacturers improve performance, reduce weight, and control costs.

Ympress 100XF Characteristics
Property
specification
Formability
Excellent cold formability. Its controlled chemistry supports consistent elongation, tight bending radii, and stretch flanging.
Weldability
Ympress 100XF offers excellent weldability and is compatible with conventional welding processes, supported by its low carbon equivalent and controlled residual element content.
Chemical Composition
Ympress 100 XF steel is a high-strength low alloy (HSLA) steel containing low amounts of carbon (.08 max), phosphorus (.020 max), and sulfur (.005 max) resulting in a more homogeneous material.
Consistent Surface and Fabrication Performance
Stringent operational controls of the chemical composition and thermal practice result in product that will perform very consistently in the fabrication process and meeting demanding surface finish requirements.
Eliminates Silicon Streaks
Ympress Grade 100 XF avoids significant alloy additions of Silicon, which eliminates the occurrence of silicon streaks. The sticky scale associated with elevated silicon will leave a residual texture on the surface that will show through most painting systems
Better Thermal Practices - Better Surface
Ympress Grade 100 XF is made with advanced thermal practices to mitigate the development of a loose flaky scale jacket. This results in a surface that allows paint systems to excel.
