More information
• About EN 10028:3 P460NL2 Steel Plate
The specification is split into grades based on minimum yield strength and each grade is further subdivided on the basis of impact testing (transverse) temperature: N and NH indicate impact testing at -20 deg C or above, NL1 at -40 deg C or above, and NL2 at -50 deg C or above.
The designation EN 10028:3 P460NL2 shows that this is steel for pressure purposes (P) with minimum yield strength of 460 MPa (460) which is impact tested in the transverse direction at -50 deg C (NL2).
As well as P460NL2 we are stockists of other EN 10028:3 plates manufactured and certified to:
o EN 10028:3 P355NL1
