Description
420ML structural steel is a thermomechanically rolled structural steel plate that provides high strength at low temperatures. 420ML structural steel meets or exceeds the requirements of S420ML in EN 10025-4.
Dimension Range
420ML structural steel is available in thicknesses of 7.00-63.00 and in widths up to 3300mm depending on the thickness. More detailed dimensions are provided in the dimension program.
Mechanical Properties
Thickness (mm) | Yield strength ReH (min MPa) | Tensile strength Rm (MPa) | Elongation A (min %) |
7.00 - 16.00 | 420 | 520 - 680 | 19 |
16.01 - 40.00 | 400 | 520 - 680 | 19 |
40.01 - 63.00 | 390 | 500 - 660 | 19 |
The tensile test is made transversally to the rolling direction in compliance with EN 10025-4.
Impact Properties
Test temperature | Min. impact energy for longitudinal Charpy V- notch test |
-60 °C | 40 J |
The impact test is made longitudinally to the rolling direction in compliance with EN 10025-4.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations
Minimum inner bending radius is 1.0 x t transverse to the rolling direction and 1.5 x t longitudinal to the rolling direction up to max 20mm in thickness.
Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when bending, welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the product.
