Complex-phase steels
The classical steel with tensile strengths of up
to 1200 MPa and superb bending properties

Complex-phase steels are part of the ahss classic Convincing advantages

product line of voestalpine in the field of ultralights. » Available with minimum tensile strengths
Complex-phase steels were specially developed of 590, 780, 980 and 1180 MPa
for roll-profiling, bending and edging processes. » High ratio of yield to tensile strength
These steels have proven themselves in large-scale » High yield strength, even in non-formed zones
serial production and are recommended in inno- » Best formability of punched edges based on
vative light-weight automotive applications such high resistance to edge cracking
as stiffeners, sills, door impact bars, seat mount- » Achievement of very narrow bending radii
ing rails and auto chassis components. A fine » High crash energy absorption
microstructure consisting of high-strength con- » Good weldability
stituents leads to high yield strength and high » Corrosion resistance based on
resistance to edge cracking while maintaining ZE/EG, Z/GI or ZF/GA coatings
excellent bending properties. As a result of this
balanced property profile, complex-phase steels
are predestined for applications containing crash
components with a high potential for light-weight
design.
