Products Application
S460Q Plates have higher payload capacity and are energy efficient, making them ideal for use in leaner structures. With a yield strength of ≥ 460 MPa and a tensile strength range of 550–700 MPa, S460Q steel plates are designed to handle heavy loads while reducing the need for excessive material use. This makes the plates suitable for structural components that need to be lightweight yet strong.
These steel plates are used in a variety of applications, including:
Heavy Transportation: S460Q steel is commonly used in trucks, trailers, railway vehicles, and shipping containers, where high strength and durability are required for heavy loads.
Construction Industry: S460Q is widely used in the construction of bridges, high-rise buildings, industrial structures, and steel frames. Its impact toughness (minimum 27J at -20°C) ensures reliability in harsh environmental conditions.
Machine Building: Ideal for machinery components, earth-moving equipment, and cranes, S460Q steel offers good weldability and fatigue resistance, making it perfect for machinery subjected to repetitive loads.
Lifting Equipment: S460Q is often used in the manufacturing of lifting gear, hoists, cranes, and derricks. The steel's excellent toughness ensures performance under heavy lifting and high dynamic loading.
With elongation ≥ 20% in a 200mm specimen and high fatigue resistance, S460Q ensures energy-efficient design in a wide range of applications while maintaining structural integrity and long service life.
