GB/T 16270 Q690D Introduce
This GB/T 16270 standard applies to quenched and tempered steel plates of thickness not higher than 150 mm. The standard defines the grade, shape, size, and weight of various steel products. It also defines the chemical composition, mechanical properties, impact energy, and so on. This standard also sets requirements for fatigue strength, corrosion resistance, thermal ageing properties, and machinability.

GB/T 16270 Q690D Material Machining Technology
The compatibility of tools with GB/T 16270 Q690D steel is important in order to achieve optimal results during machining operations. The tools should have high wear resistance and be hard enough to cut through the steel without wearing out. High-speed steel, cobalt, and tungsten carbide tools are generally recommended as they are hard enough to cut through steel and also have high wear resistance. Carbide and ceramic tools are also recommended for turning operations as they can improve surface finish.
