One of their standout products is the S600MC Sheet and Plate — a high-strength, low-alloy structural steel specifically crafted for cold forming applications. Renowned for its impressive mechanical properties and excellent weldability, S600MC is perfect for use in the automotive, construction, and heavy machinery sectors. Thabiso Steel guarantees reliable delivery and competitive pricing for both local and international markets.
S600MC is a thermomechanically rolled, high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) structural steel. Its chemical makeup typically features low carbon content (≤0.12%), along with manganese, niobium, titanium, and vanadium to boost strength and formability. It boasts a minimum yield strength of 600 MPa and tensile strength that ranges from 680 to 830 MPa. With good elongation and outstanding toughness at low temperatures, it also excels in cold-forming capabilities. S600MC complies with the EN 10149-2 standard and is widely acknowledged for its reliable mechanical performance, weldability, and resistance to fatigue and impact in challenging environments.
