An advanced, high strength structural steel with good welding properties. Designed for use in highly demanding load-bearing structures that require exceptional strength, such as heavy machinery, cranes, bridges and offshore structures. S960QL offers an extremely high yield strength, making it one of the strongest structural steels available. The "S" in S960QL stands for structural steel, while the numerical value "960" indicates the minimum yield strength in megapascals (MPa). The primary characteristic of S960QL is its exceptional strength. It offers a minimum yield strength of 960 MPa, allowing it to withstand heavy loads and resist deformation under extreme conditions. This high strength makes S960QL suitable for applications where superior structural performance is required. Applications include crane arms, mining and construction equipment and agricultural machinery.
