Mechanical Properties
The values shown for strength and elongation in the table below are for test pieces taken transverse to the rolling direction; those for the impact test are for test pieces taken in the rolling direction.
| EN 10028-2: 2009 | Grade | P265GH |
|---|---|---|
| Min. yield strength 1 | ReH (N/mm2) | 265 |
| Tensile strength | Rm (N/mm2) | 410 - 530 |
| Elongation | % | 22 |
| Impact stength 2 | Temp. °C | -20 |
| Min. energy J | 27 |
1. Upper yield strength or 0.2% proof stress applies.
2. Impact strengths apply to thicknesses > 6 mm and are for standard test pieces only. Please contact us for details.
Elongation after fracture A uses test piece length L0 = 5.65√S0.
t – material thickness in mm.
Chemical composition
Structural steel meets the requirements of the cast analysis in the standard, as shown in the table below.
The steel grades supplied by Tata Steel are always fully killed.
Tata Steel does not supply steel with increased copper content.
