ISO 3183 PSL2 Grade L450QO Material Mechanical Properties

The mechanical properties of ISO 3183 PSL2 Grade L450QO are determined through the combination of chemistry, heat treatment, and mechanical processing. Generally speaking, the mechanical properties of ISO 3183 PSL2 Grade L450QO can be improved by increasing the levels of alloying elements, such as carbon and manganese. ISO 3183 PSL2 Grade L450QO is often classified as a medium carbon steel with a yield strength of at least 250 MPa (36 ksi). It is also classified as an alloy steel, which means it has a higher level of strength than low carbon steel and greater wear resistance than stainless steel. Generally, ISO 3183 PSL2 Grade L450QO has excellent weldability and is suitable for cold forming and bending.
