BBN EN 10025-6 high strength steel S690QL Z25 are approved by European standard certification

Compared with the traditional seamless steel pipe, alloy seamless pipe has better performance in all aspects. Because of the addition of various metal elements in the manufacturing, the overall strength of the alloy seamless pipe is larger, stronger and durable, and the service performance and service life of the EN 10025-6 high strength steel S690QL Z25, alloy seamless pipe are improved. The alloy seamless pipe is the best choice especially for special environment and high pressure requirements. Because of its high material properties, alloy seamless pipe has good corrosion resistance. It is not easy to be corroded in some special environment, which reduces the cost of the project and has a longer service life.

According to the latest statistics of alacero, the consumption of finished steel EN 10025-6 high strength steel S690QL Z25 products in Latin America in 2019 was 64.2 million tons, down 5% from 67.6 million tons in 2018. The decline in steel consumption in the region reflects the economic contraction of Latin American countries, especially the three major economies: Mexico, Argentina and Brazil.

A small amount of Nb is sufficient to obtain excellent comprehensive properties of EN 10025-6 high strength steel S690QL Z25 etc. steel material, because at low Nb concentration, the yield strength of steel material increases faster and is proportional to the concentration, but when the Nb content is greater than 0.03%, the strengthening effect begins to decrease. Studies have shown that when the Nb content is greater than 0.06%, excess Nb will no longer strengthen the steel material.

EN 10025-6 high strength steel S690QL Z25, Q690 steel is low alloy high strength steel. It belongs to the Chinese GB standard steel.
Q690 steel is named after its yield strength value. Q is the abbreviation of yield strength, that is, the yield strength of Q690 steel is 690 MPa. Chemical composition of Q690 steel: C ≤ 0.18, Si ≤ 0.60, Mn ≤ 2.0, P ≤ 0.030, S ≤ 0.025, Nb ≤ 0.11, V ≤ 0.12, Ti ≤ 0.20, Cr ≤ 1.00, Ni ≤ 0.80, Cu ≤ 0.80, N ≤ 0.015, Mo ≤ 0.30, B ≤ 0.004, Al ≤ 0.015.
The mechanical properties of Q690 steel are: yield strength ≥ 690 MPa, tensile strength 730-940 MPa, elongation after fracture ≥ 14%, impact energy 31J.
