ASTM A1011/A1011 HSLAS GR70 (480) CLASS 2 HSLA Grade 70 — Hot Roll PO Steel

ASTM A1011/A1011 HSLAS GR70 (480) CLASS 2 is a hsla grade 70 grade hot roll po steel conforming to the astm standards. At 480 MPa minimum yield strength, this is advanced-strength steel for B-pillar reinforcements, side impact beams, and roof bow structures.

Class two permits a wider mechanical property range with relaxed yield tolerance bands, offering manufacturing flexibility for applications where close yield control is less critical.

The Class 2 designation indicates wider mechanical property tolerance bands with manufacturing flexibility for general structural use. Within the ASTM family, different class numbers reflect progressively different ductility and elongation requirements to suit varying stamping complexity.

As a Low Alloy / HSLA steel, ASTM A1011/A1011 HSLAS GR70 (480) CLASS 2 offers a specific combination of strength and formability engineered for advanced automotive manufacturing. This advanced high-strength classification meets demanding structural performance requirements.
