Classification:

Belongs to the basic series (StE...) for general structural use.

Variants may include:

WStE460: High-temperature resistant series.

TStE460: Low-temperature resistant series (improved impact toughness at low temperatures).

EStE460: Special low-temperature series (enhanced toughness for extreme cold conditions).

 Mechanical Properties

The mechanical properties of StE460 depend on thickness, production process, and delivery state (e.g., hot-rolled, normalized). Typical values for the basic series (StE460) are as follows:

 

Property	Typical Values (Thickness ≤ 16 mm)	Notes
Yield Strength (ReH)	≥ 460 MPa	Decreases slightly with increased thickness.
Tensile Strength (Rm)	550–720 MPa	Ensures high load-bearing capacity.
Elongation (A5)	≥ 18%	Indicates good ductility for formability.
Impact Toughness	-20°C ≥ 27 J (V-notch, for TStE460)	TStE460/EStE460 variants offer lower test temperatures (e.g., -50°C for TStE, -60°C for EStE).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: Values may vary by manufacturer; always refer to the material test certificate (MTC) for exact specifications.

Chemical Composition

Typical chemical composition (weight %) for StE460 (base series):

 

Carbon (C): ≤ 0.20% (to balance strength and weldability).

Silicon (Si): ≤ 0.55%

Manganese (Mn): ≤ 1.70%

Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.025%

Sulfur (S): ≤ 0.015%

Alloying Elements: Small additions of niobium (Nb), vanadium (V), or titanium (Ti) for grain refinement and strength enhancement.

 

Key Feature: Low carbon (CE ≤ 0.45%) ensures good weldability without preheating in most cases.
