PROPERTIES
It has good cold weldability, bending and deformation conditions. It does not accept
hardening. It has a good resistance to low temperature impacts previews to the standard treatment.

USES
Mechanical elements of middle responsibility. It does not have an elevated level of resistance
but it does have a good toughness.
This steel is used in mechanical structures with high responsibility and mechanical
pieces such as bolts, fixation elements, washers, iron works, etc.
