Download data sheet

General Product Description

A structural steel developed for use in demanding load-bearing structures within the Offshore and Marine Industry.

Strenx® 700 OME exceeds the requirements of S690QL, EN 10025-6. Strenx® 700 OME can be ordered with dual steel grades certificate, where the additional steel grade is defined and approved by one of the Classification Societies listed below. The dual certification offers You the benefits of excellent mechanical properties, extra tight tolerances, formability and consistency of SSAB Strenx® Guarantees.

Strenx® Guarantees meet the requirements of EN 10029 Class A, but offers narrower tolerances.

Length and Width

According to SSAB’s dimension program. Tolerances conform with EN 10029 or to SSAB’s standard after agreement. 

Shape

Tolerances according to EN 10029.

Flatness

Tolerances according to Strenx® Flatness Guarantee Class C, which are more narrow than EN 10029 Class N. 

Surface Properties

According to EN 10163-2 Class A, Subclass 3.

Delivery Conditions

The delivery condition is Quenched and Tempered. The plates are delivered with sheared or thermally cut edges. Untrimmed edges after agreement.

Delivery requirements can be found in SSAB’s brochure Strenx® Guarantees or on www.ssab.com.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations

Welding, bending and machining

Recommendations are found in SSAB’s brochures at www.ssab.com or consult Tech Support.

Strenx® 700 OME has bending guarantees according to Strenx® Bending Guarantees Class A. The properties of the delivery condition cannot be retained after exposure to temperatures in excess of 1076oF. 

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