Material data sheet
General
On this tab page you will find the following information:
- The steel group to which the material is assigned.
- The standards of a material with the following information:
- Standard institute
- Document number
- Standard title
- Predecessor document, successor document and international conformity.
- Range of application
- Suitable welding filler materials
Composition
Conflict minerals
The traffic light icons show you immediately if the material contains any conflict minerals.
A green traffic light signals that the material contains no conflict minerals.
A red traffic light signals that the material contains conflict minerals. Additionally, the corresponding elements are highlighted in yellow.
The description how to display and hide the highlighting of conflict minerals you can find in our FAQs.
Open formula calculator
Click on the 
-button to transfer the composition of a material to our formula calculator which helps you to calculate values such as: chrome equivalent, nickel equivalent, various carbon equivalents (CEV / CEIIW, CET, PCM / CEPcm) and the PREN-Index.
Copy composition to search
By clicking the 
-button the values of a composition can be copied into the Composition Search. A new search window will be opened with the corresponding values.
-button to add a composition to the composition comparison.Mechanical properties
The mechanical properties are clearly listed on this tab. The values are grouped by standard, shape, condition and property.
Please click on the -button to show properties for a standard and on the -button to suppress them.
Individual conditions and properties can also be shown by clicking the -button or -button to suppress them again. This feature is extremely helpful to minimize the number of pages in the printout. Suppressed values are indicated by cursive spelling.
Property filter
Filter on properties such as:
Yield stress (Re) 0,1% yield stress (Rp0,1) 0,2% yield stress (Rp0,2) 0,5% yield stress (Rt0,5) 1% yield stress (Rp1,0) Tensile strength (Rm) Compressive strength Elongation after fracture [A5,65, A50, A80] Reduction of area (Z) Hardness [HB, HBW, HRB, HRC, HV] Impact value (ISO-V/Charpy-V, KV, KV2, KV8, ISO-U/Charpy-U, KU, DVM) [J] Creep limit 1.000 h, 10.000 h, 100.000 h, 200.000 h (Rp 1,0) Creep rupture strength 100 h, 1.000 h, 10.000 h, 30.000 h, 50.000 h, 100.000 h, 200.000 h, 250.000 h High temperature stability Hot tensile strength Torsional strength Working resistance Jominy test Folding test Bending test Application Impact transition temperature (27 J) Fracture appearance transition temperature (FATT50) Ratio of yield stress to tensile strength (Re/Rm) Increase of yield strength through heat influence (BH2) Hardening exponent (n)
