Baosteel develops 1200MPa steel

Baosteel Group has become the first steelmaker in China that can develop 1200MPa ultra high strength structural steel. Currently only a few steelmakers around the world can yield the product.

1200MPa ultra high strength steel is a HR product with the highest tensile strength. Due to no noble metal alloy content, it is an environment friendly product with low cost and nice welding performance which can be used in the manufacturing of structural member, stiffener, safety member and so on.

Product performance of 1200MPa ultra high strength steel Baosteel produces has met design requirements and the tensile strength and extensibility are even better than scheduled value.
