S700 high yield structural steel plate for offshore and marine industry

Description

A structural steel developed for use in demanding load-bearing structures within the Offshore and Marine Industry.

S700 steel exceeds the requirements of S690QL steel, EN 10025-6. S700 steel can be ordered with dual steel grades certificate, where the additional steel grade is defined and approved by one of the Classification Societies listed below.

The dual certification offers You the benefits of excellent mechanical properties, extra tight tolerances, formability and consistency of VANFORGE
