Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining

T370T Class 1 ballistic steel is not intended for further heat treatment. If T370HBW Class 1 steel is heated above 390 °C after delivery from VANFORGE no guarantees for the properties of the steel are given.

Nitriding or surface coating may be carried out if the temperature is below 390 °C.

Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the product. Grinding, especially of primer coated plates, may produce dust with high particle concentration.
