Data Sheet: A4.
SUPRAFORM® S315–700 MC / EN10149-2 S315–700 MC

Hot Rolled High Strength Low Alloy Structural Steel Coil
General description
Suprafrom® MC is a range of high strength low alloy structural steels with improved formability. This is
achieved by means of reduced perlite i.e. low carbon content, which also imparts excellent weldability
and toughness to the steel. The high strength is derived from precipitation hardening by micro alloying
elements (mainly niobium) and carefully controlling the processing parameters during hot rolling.
The Supraform® MC range consists of seven grades where the MC designations relate to the minimum
respective yield strengths of each grade. The specifications for the Suprafrom® MC range are similar to
those in EN 10149 specifications.
During steel making, the steel is calcium treated to reduce the sulphur content to very low values and also
to effect inclusion shape control. The heat is processed to a high standard of steel cleanliness, which
results in excellent notch toughness properties.
Supraform® MC grades can usually be welded using any of the standard arc and resistance welding
processes without any special precautions.
Some typical applications for Supraform® MC grades are as follows:

• Body and chassis components for the automotive and truck industry, bumper brackets, engine
mounting brackets and wheel centres.
• Crane jibs and booms
• A wide variety of uses for mining equipment, rolling stock, cold formed sections and other high
strength applications.

Mechanical properties
The high strength of the Supraform® MC grades is achieved by grain refinement and precipitation
hardening of the ferritic microstructure. In order to ensure that the mechanical properties are met,
the ferritic grain size is carefully controlled and is finer than ASTM E112, plate No 1, grain size 8.
In order to maintain this microstructure, heating or hot forming above 450°C should be avoided
during fabrication or repair operations as the yield and tensile properties may be impaired and
cannot be restored by subsequent heat treatment.

Notes:
1. The test is performed in accordance with BS EN ISO 6892-1: 2009
2. Tests are done longitudinal to the rolling direction, except S700MC which is tested in the cross
rolling direction
3. The sample will be free of cracks on the outside of the bend when tested to EN ISO 7438.
Dimensions
®
Supraform MC is available in the dimensions indicated in the applicable Price Lists.
Dimensional tolerances
®
The Supraform MC range is produced with dimensional tolerances in accordance with EN10051
Flatness tolerances
For laser cutting and critical flatness requirements, the material must be adequately stretch
levelled. Insufficiently levelling may result in material not being adequately deformed and hence
distortion during further processing such as laser cutting.
Certification
All material described in this data sheet is supplied with test and analysis certificates.
Supply conditions
All material described in this data sheet is supplied in terms of Price Lists 120 and 121 and ArcelorMittal
South Africa’s General Conditions of Sale.
