Maximum contents, % by mass.

Notes:
a. Elements not listed in the table shall not be intentionally added to the steel without the agreement of the purchaser, except for finishing the cast.
b. The manufacturer may add one or several alloying elements up to the specified maximum values according to product thickness and steelmaking conditions.
c. A lower maximum copper content and/or maximum sum of copper and tin may be agreed upon at the time of enquiry and order.
d. The percentage of grain-refining elements shall be at least 0.015%. Aluminium is also included in these elements.

Fabrication and Welding

EN 10028-6 plates provide good weldability when appropriate welding procedures are followed.

• Suitable for controlled welding processes
• Good fabrication characteristics
• Good bending performance within specified limits
• Suitable for pressure vessel fabrication
• Excellent strength-to-weight performance
• Reliable welded joint performance

Because these are high-strength quenched and tempered steels, welding parameters, preheating, interpass temperature, heat input, and post-weld heat treatment should be controlled according to the grade and thickness.


Heat Treatment

EN 10028-6 products are supplied in the quenched and tempered condition.

• Quenching increases strength
• Tempering improves toughness
• Controlled heat treatment refines the microstructure
• Proper tempering reduces brittleness
• Heat treatment provides uniform mechanical properties
• Controlled processing improves resistance to brittle fracture

Additional heat treatment should be carefully controlled because excessive heating can affect the properties obtained through quenching and tempering.


Advantages of EN 10028-6 Steel Sheet & Plate

• Very high strength
• Excellent pressure-bearing capability
• High strength-to-weight ratio
• Excellent toughness
• Good weldability
• Fine-grain structure
• Good resistance to brittle fracture
• Suitable for high-pressure applications
• Available in multiple strength classes
• Reliable long-term performance


Conclusion

EN 10028-6 Steel Sheet & Plate covers weldable fine-grain steels in the quenched and tempered condition for pressure purposes. The standard includes P460Q, P500Q, P690Q, P890Q, and P960Q strength classes together with their QL1 and QL2 low-temperature toughness grades.
