9MnV5*

All

General Information

9MnV5* is also referred to as S355L4. It is a micro-alloyed steel for general purposes where fantastic impact properties at low temperatures as well as defined mechanical properties are demanded. It is especially suitable for this sections. It has a tight chemical composition as well as low levels of residual elements to give small variations in the mechanical properties. The low carbon equivalent CEV makes it suitable for welding.

* Designation followed by "*" is not an official EN standard grade but named according to the rules in EN 10027.

The grade is not intended for heat treatment operations. Normalizing is not necessary as normalised rolling is performed.

SUSTAINABILITY-ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT DATA

At Ovako sustainability and reduction of our environmental impact is a major focus in everything we do.
Further information is found here.

In many international comparisons the crude steel Scope 1-2 emission is a key parameter, ie. the CO₂ emission from the steel works itself.
As of 1 January 2022 we carbon offset all our scope 1 and 2 volume shown below.

Steel works	Hofors	Smedjebacken	Imatra
CO2e/kg	120	62	76

To get the full picture of our products environmental impact we have to look at all of our CO₂ emission sources.
Not only the steel work Scope 1-2 itself, but all operations downstream in our production, heating and heat treatment furnaces etc (full scope 1-2) as well as all the emission from input material, eg. alloys, scope 3.

Steel Grade	Format	Condition	Scope 1-3 (CO2e kg /1000 kg steel)	Climate compensated Net emission = Scope 3 (CO2e kg /1000 kg steel) Scope 1 - 2 = 0 (compensated)
S355L4	Flat bar	+AR	360	172

As of 1 January 2022 we use carbon offset for all our scope 1- 2 emissions, so in practice the climate compensated data is the same as the full Scope 3 level.
All above data are to be seen as typical values for the specified format and condition. Detailed information about your specific product please contact your sales contact.
