Quend

Description

Quend® is a high yield strength structural steel known for its exceptional toughness suitable for applications where strength and safety are crucial. It is specifically designed to meet the demanding requirements of industries such as lifting, heavy machinery and transportation.

Products advantages

The Quend® high yield strength steels plates are delivered with a yield strength of 700 MPa (Quend® 700), 900 MPa (Quend® 900), 960 MPa (Quend® 960) and 1100 MPa (Quend® 1100), with thicknesses ranging from 4 mm to 64 mm and widths from 1,500 to 3,100 mm.

Applications

Quend® is used for crane booms, truck chassis, trailers, stabilising support, undercarriage, etc.

Workability

Easier to process

The way of making our steel slabs, of rolling our plates and heat treating them gives to Quend® (and Quard®) specific mechanical properties that leads to a superior workability. From the cutting till the machining, surveys prove that our material gets the preferences in the workshops for their excellent behaviour.

  1. RAÍZEN

    Entreprise

    RAÍZEN, the largest producer of sugar and ethanol – from sugar cane – in the world, performed a complete technical test where some Quard® (sample of Quard® 450 – 6mm thickness) presented some very good results:
    – Quard® weldability proved very good and simple to be performed
    – Quard® hardness is accord to data sheet specification and low carbon and alloying elements confirm its good weldability
    – We recommend using Quard® as wear resistant material, always respecting the hardness specified for each application
