1.What is s890ql1 material equivalent?

S890QL1 is a European quenched and tempered high-yield strength structural steel (EN 10025-6) known for its high strength and excellent low-temperature toughness (impact tested to -60°C), with common equivalents including Strenx® 900 F, German EStE 890 V, and the material number 1.8925, used for heavy-duty construction, cranes, and earthmoving machinery.

 

2.Are s890ql1 and s890ql the same?

No, S890QL1 and S890QL are not the same, though they are very similar high-strength structural steels under the EN 10025-6 standard. The key difference lies in their impact toughness requirements: S890QL requires impact energy at -50°C, while S890QL1 demands a tougher, lower temperature impact energy of -60°C, making it suitable for more extreme cold condition.
