Your product of choice: DC01EK - DC06ED
1) Where no yield strength is defined, the respective values shall apply to the 0.2% proof stress (Rp0.2) or to the lower yield strength (Rel). For thicknesses ≤ 0.7 mm but > 0.5 mm, the maximum yield strength values may be 20 MPa higher. In case of thicknesses ≤ 0.5 mm, the maximum yield limits may be 40 MPa higher.
2) For thicknesses ≤ 0.7 mm, but > 0.5 mm, the minimum elongation at fracture may be 2 units lower. For thicknesses ≤ 0.5 mm, the minimum elongation at fracture may be 4 units lower.
3) The r̄ values apply to product thicknesses ≥ 0.5 mm only. For thicknesses > 2 mm, the r̄ value is reduced by 0.2.
4) For thicknesses ≥ 1.5 mm, the maximum permissible yield strength is 225 MPa.
5) Steel types DC03ED and DC04ED can be subjected to a decarburization treatment in the solid or liquid phase. The maximum permissible carbon content by check analysis is 0.004%.
