use cases
  • In sheet product form and temper 0, H32, H34 used in automotive application (body panels, general purpose).
  • Primarily for parts requiring good formability and weldability in fabrication and moderate strength, but usage is not limited to such applications.
  • These products have been used typically for formed parts requiring moderate strength and good corrosion resistance and where welding may be required in fabrication, but usage is not limited to such applications.
  • These products have been used typically for parts requiring moderate forming and where good welding characteristics and resistance to corrosion are important, but usage is not limited to such applications.
  • These products have been used typically for parts requiring moderate strength, good formability, good welding and resistance spot welding characteristics, and good resistance to corrosion, but usage is not limited to such applications
