About EN 10025:3 S460N Steel Plate
-
The specification EN 10025:3 covers weldable structural steels manufactured with a fine grain structure and supplied in the normalised condition or in an equivalent condition obtained by normalised rolling. There are four grades of EN10025:3 steel plate, (S275, S355, S420 and S460) these indicate each grade’s minimum yield strength (in MPa) for plates 16 mm thick and below. Each grade is further sub-divided based on the specified minimum value of impact energy at a particular temperature. N indicates temperatures not lower than -20 deg C and NL not lower than -50 deg C.
The designation EN 10025:3 S460N shows that this is steel for structural purposes (S) with minimum yield strength of 460 MPa (460) which is impact tested at -20 deg C (N).
As well as S460N we are stockists of plates to EN 10025:3 S460NL.
