S500MC steel plate is high strength structural steel. S represents structure and 500 indicates yield strength is not less than 500MPa. S500MC steel plate is a new material introduced along with the introduction of relevant technology from ALSTOM company of France. Due to its high strength, high toughness and low carbon content, S500MC steel plate has become an ideal material suitable for lightweight and high strength design requirements of locomotive bogie frame.
Chemical composition of S500MC steel plate
C：0.21， SI：0.30， MN：1.5， P：0.030， S：0.025
Various static and fatigue fracture properties of S500MC steel plate are the basis of structural strength analysis, durability and damage tolerance design. S500MC steel plate microalloyed high strength steel sheet can be widely used in automobile and other fields due to its combination of high strength and high toughness and plasticity.
S500MC steel plate is used for buildings, bridges, ships, vehicles, pressure vessels and other structures. The carbon content (melting analysis) is generally not more than 0.20%, the total content of alloy elements is generally not more than 2.5%, and the yield strength is not less than 295mpa. S500MC steel plate has good impact toughness and weldability.
