Profiles are supplied as cold rolled and electroplated.

Chemical Composition – % Max

Note — The carbon equivalent (CE) is determined in accordance with the equation from AS/NZS 1163:2016 – Grade:C350LO CE = C + Mn/6 + (Cr+M0+V)/5 + (Ni+Cu)/15

Mechanical Properties

Note

• Test specimens are to be taken longitudinally from a major flat portion of the section. Test frequency is as per AS/NZS 1163:2016.
• The yield, tensile and elongation will be determined in accordance with AS 1391, with samples artificially aged to a temperature of 180 degrees for a period of not less than 15 minutes.

Impact Testing
Impact testing as described in Section 10 of AS/NZS1163:2016 is performed at O°C in accordance with AS 1544.2 on all profiles (flats, angles and channels) with a nominal thickness of 6mm or greater.

Coating Thickness
All profiles are electroplated to a thickness of 50 grams per square metre per side (ZIOO). The profiles are then coated with a solvent based Clearcote to a thickness averaging between 14 and 20 microns.

Surface Finish
Product shall be free from lamination, surface flaws and other defects detrimental to its use for structural purposes.

Length
