DX51D is a grade of cold rolled low carbon steel sheet and strip. Originating from the European Industrial Standard (EN), some domestic steel mills also use this grade as their corporate standard. Sometimes SGCC appears at the same time as it. For most professional steel practitioners, SGCC and DX51D can replace each other under the premise of certain consistent delivery requirements. DX51D steel is mainly used for manufacturing cold-formed steel, welded steel pipe, automobile bodies, automobile parts, building structures, general steel plate components, etc. This steel has a specific chemical composition and mechanical properties, excellent stamping performance, welding performance, and surface quality, and can meet various cold forming requirements. It meets the needs of a variety of applications.

Material Characteristics

It has good plasticity, toughness, welding performance, and cold forming performance, and its yield strength is moderate, which is conducive to stamping and other processing processes. In addition, the DX51D steel plate also has good corrosion resistance and is suitable for use in a variety of environments.

Surface Quality

The surface quality is usually high, without obvious defects such as cracks, inclusions, bubbles, etc. This helps to ensure the reliability and durability of the steel plate during subsequent processing and use.

The minimum elongation applies to the following thicknesses, t represents the thickness of the plate:

1). 0.5mm < t ≤ 0.7mm, the minimum elongation is 2% less than the value in the table;

2). 0.35mm < t ≤ 0.5mm, the minimum elongation is 4% less than the value in the table;

3). t ≤ 0.35mm, the minimum elongation is 7% less than the value in the table.
