They combine the ductility needed for substantial plastic deformation with the strength and toughness required in cold-formed fasteners, automotive parts and other precision components. This describes the material class as a whole. Always confirm the individual grade against the standard before ordering. ## Predicted transformation temperatures Not enough recorded composition to predict a transformation temperature for this grade — missing: C, Mn, Si, Ni, Cr, Mo. ## Physical & mechanical properties An absent property means we hold no value for it — it is left out rather than estimated, interpolated from a neighbouring grade, or filled from a handbook. It does not mean the property is undefined for the material. ## Properties by condition 1 conditions · 2 values By delivery state**no delivery state stated** source `steeljis` | Delivery state | Rm N/mm² | Z% | |---|---|---| | Wires | 410 | 55 | Every figure holds only for the condition on its own row. Values are never merged across conditions or across sources, never averaged, and never interpolated between two rows. An em dash means no value on file — never zero. Figures are converted to the unit in the column header; the source’s own wording is kept and shown where the two differ. ## Looking for this grade under another name?
