- Bend radius of 1T <.230” and 1.5T at ≥ .230” for forming applications
Specifications
-
Formability
Excellent cold formability, bending a guaranteed to 1T <.230" and 1.5T at ≥ .230" inside bend radii in both longitudinal and transverse directions compared to 2T” for bend lines transverse to the rolling direction and even higher for bend lines parallel to the rolling direction for most A514 and grade 100 strip steel -
Weldability
Ympress 100XF Steel can be welded at room temperatures without preheating. It is appropriate for all conventional welding methods without a propensity to hardening and cold cracking. Its CEQ is lower than a conventional Q&T plate -
Surface
Aside from its high strength, lightweight features, Grade 100 Steel is temper pass leveled to assure flatness during processing, and hot rolled black plates from coil are brushed to provide a quality enhanced surface for appearance and finishing. For the very best surface and fabrication throughput, Steel Warehouse Grade 100 plates from coil can be supplied as pickled and oiled -
Mechanical Properties
Grade 100XF Steel readily meets the most demanding mechanical property tolerances -
Chemical Composition
Ympress 100 XF steel is a high strength low alloy (HSLA) steel containing low amounts of carbon (.08 max), phosphorus (.020), and sulfur (.005) resulting in a more homogeneous material -
Price/Cost Value
Very competitively priced compared with A514 material. Combine the qualities and benefits of Grade 100 Carbon Steel, and you'll enjoy an unprecedented cost-value. - 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
