High Strength Steel Plates -S960Q

Jan 04, 2026 Leave a message

Grade S960Q is a high strength structural steel in the quenched and tempered condition which gives the material excellent strength and abrasion resistance.
S960QL is a water quenched & tempered steel which complies with the EN10025:6:2004 specification. Due to the nature of the material it is used extensively in the heavy transport, lifting and mining industry, where huge payloads and risk of material deterioration through excessive abrasion is commonplace.
Produced in accordance with EN10025:6:2004, S960Q has good bending and welding capabilities.
Please refer to the technical details below referring to S960Q

S960Q steel plate welding performance The steel specified in EN 10025-6 is not only dependent on the material during and after the different welding processes and the welding behavior of the steel, but also on the size, shape, and manufacturing and component use conditions. Therefore, the weldability is not infinitely suitable. Sex. The general requirements for steel arc welding specified in the standard are given in EN 1011-2. Note: Along with the increased product thickness and strength level, cold cracking may occur. Cold cracking is caused by a combination of the following factors: A. The amount of hydrogen diffused in the weld metal B. Brittle structure of heat affected zone C. A large amount of tensile stress is concentrated at the welding point.
