New Hollow Profiles Save Weight, Time And Costs

These hollow profiles have been specially developed to reduce the weight for mechanical applications. With its high yield strength of 420 MPa and weight savings of up to 17% - compared to Celsius 355 from Tata Steel - Celsius 420 can be used, for example, in industrial plants, in agricultural machinery and for vehicle axles. Celsius 420 has a very uniform grain structure and is free of residual stress. In conjunction with its lower carbon equivalent (CEV) of 0.45 - which is significantly better than the value of 0.5 required in DIN EN 10210 - this improves the weldability of 420 Celsius. The lower CEV means that no subsequent heat treatment is required which ensures good cost efficiency. According to the manufacturer, the good weldability for high-strength hollow profiles ensuresthat these parts can be processed without changes in the customer's standard welding process. In addition, the edges of the square or rectangular Celsius profiles have smaller radii, so that in addition to the good static values, there are other advantages such as good weld preparation and less weld metal requirement. In addition, these hot-formed hollow profiles should be characterized by a lower risk of brittle fracture, best workability and an appealing, uniform surface.
