Delete website: Advanced and ultra high-strength steel
Our cold-rolled dual phase and hot forming grades include advanced (AHSS) and ultra high-strength steels (UHSS).
Originally developed for the demanding automotive market, they also meet a variety of performance and processing requirements for other advanced applications.
Our advanced and ultra high-strength cold-rolled steels DP600, DP800, DP1000 and HQ1500 are lightweight and enable design freedom for complex parts.
Their high yield and ductility ensure shape accuracy and tolerancing, which enable thickness reduction and maintained in-service performance for difficult-to-form parts.

EN_US-Product-Cold-rolled-AHSS-All Grades OverviewTSUK
The good formability of our advanced and ultra high-strength steels (AHSS / UHSS) allows the user to increase the strength of the finished automotive components in body in white applications (BIW) by exploiting the high work-hardening characteristics. Substitution of high strength steel grades provides opportunities to reduce thickness while maintaining the in-service performance, resulting in potential cost and mass savings.
Dual phase grades
Cold-rolled dual phase steels allow you to increase the strength of the finished component or reduce the thickness of the steel - or both. By increasing product performance and helping reduce weight, these steels support you to achieve your optimum performance parameters. The use of dual phase grades increases the output from each tonne of steel and produces products that are strong, light and safe under load. High strain-hardening capacity ensures our dual phase steels have good formability.
Hot forming steel - 22MnB5
Our 22MnB5 product is an uncoated, ultra high-strength hot forming steel. It combines a strength level of 1500 N/mm2 with excellent shape accuracy. Compared with conventional high-strength, low-alloy grades, 22MnB5 offers real opportunities for weight reduction through down-gauging. It also ensures good repeatability in long production runs when compared with cold press forming.
Applications
Body in white (BIW), structural and reinforcement components and lightweight structural seat components
