About a decade ago, a consortium of thirty-five steel companies worldwide undertook a massive programme to design, build, and test an UltraLight Steel Auto Body (ULSAB).W-1. ULSAB proved to be lightweight, structurally sound, safe, executable and affordable. One of the major contributors to the success of the ULSAB was a group of new steel types and grades called Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) (or ultra high-tensile steel).
The main reason to utilize AHSS is their better performance in crash energy management, which allows one to down gauge with AHSS. In addition, these engineered AHSS address the automotive industry's need for steels with higher strength than conventional mild steels and enhanced formability. The DP (Dual phase) and TRIP (Transformation induced plasticity) steels may provide additional stretchability (but not bendability) compared to conventional steels such as HSLA steels within the same strength range. The CP (Complex phase) and MS (Martensitic) steels extend the strength range while maintaining the same formability.
While the ULSAB proved these AHSS provided a major benefit to the automotive industry, these steels reacted differently from traditional higher strength steels in forming and assembly. Worldwide working groups within the WorldAutoSteel organization created the AHSS Application Guidelines (See the link below) to explain how and why AHSS steels were different from traditional mild and higher strength steels in terms of press-forming, fabrication, and joining processes for automotive underbody, structural, and body panels designed for higher strength steels.
Grades of high tensile steel are based on their tensile strength and heat resistance. The best of these are used in axles and other high stress constructions that are required to operation safely.
KSF60 is carbon. low alloy , high tensile forged steel.
A105 is a carbon steel typically used for forged fittings and flanges in high-temperature applications, while 304 is a stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance and formability. A105 has a lower tensile strength and is more prone to rusting, making it suitable for non-corrosive environments. In contrast, 304 is more versatile due to its resistance to oxidation and is often used in food processing and chemical industries.
Yes, there is a difference between HCR (High Carbon Steel) and HCRM (High Carbon-High Chromium Steel). HCR typically contains a higher percentage of carbon, making it harder and more wear-resistant, while HCRM includes chromium, which enhances corrosion resistance and improves toughness. This makes HCRM suitable for applications requiring both hardness and resistance to oxidation. Overall, the addition of chromium in HCRM tailored its properties for specific industrial uses.
The raw material commonly used for manufacturing 12.9 grade fasteners is alloy steel, specifically a high-strength carbon steel like SCM435 or similar grades. These steels typically contain elements such as chromium and molybdenum, which enhance their mechanical properties, including tensile strength and hardness. The 12.9 grade indicates a minimum tensile strength of 1,220 MPa (megapascals) and is often used in applications requiring high strength and durability.
High tensile steel is strong steel. It is 10 times stronger than wood and more than twice the tensile strength of mild steel. High tensile steel is commonly used in highway guardrails.
No, carbon steel and high tensile steel are not the same. Carbon steel is a type of steel where the primary alloying element is carbon, and it can have varying carbon content, affecting its hardness and strength. High tensile steel, on the other hand, is specifically designed to have high strength and tensile properties, often achieved through alloying elements like manganese, nickel, or chromium, and specific heat treatments. While high tensile steel can be a type of carbon steel, not all carbon steels are classified as high tensile steel.
Grades of high tensile steel are based on their tensile strength and heat resistance. The best of these are used in axles and other high stress constructions that are required to operation safely.
No
High tensile steel put simply is used where structures require high tensile strength. Tensile stress is where the forces on a material are "pulling" from each end away from the centre. Steel can be alloyed with certain materials such as aluminum to create a material that is stronger under tensile loading. An example of where high tensile steel is required is the cables of the ANZAC bridge that support its deck. Hope this helps..
Hyundai have always used high tensile steel in certain components of all their vehicles.
the grades of steel are S275,S355and S460
High Tensile Steel (HTS) is generally used for prestressing tendons.

high tensile stainless steel
mild and high tensile steel can not be combined,because of there different chemical and physical properties as structural component, p k sharma
High tensile is use to vehicle chassis in order to prevent the chassis for bending during heavy loads and for collision purposes.And also high tensile is more light,comfortable, and has a strong strength compare to low tensile and mild steel.
