General Product Description
SSAB Boron 38 is steel for quench- and press hardening. The degree of hardness and toughness that can be achieved after heat-treatment will provide the final products with wear- and shock resistance properties that assure longer lifetime.
Dimension Range
SSAB Boron 38 is available in thickness range 1.00-15.00 mm and widths up to 1800 mm as coils, slit coils and CTL. Lengths up to 16 meters as cut to length.
For detailed available thickness and width combinations, please contact SSAB.

Bending radius
Minimum bending radius of hot rolled strip products is 2 x sheet thickness. A tighter bending radius, 1 x sheet thickness, can be guaranteed for the annealed strip products.
Material Testing
A test certificate according to EN 10204/3.1 (chemical composition only) is part of the delivery.
A test certificate according to EN 10204/3.1 (with mechanical test) can be provided by special agreement only.

Tolerances
SSAB Boron steels are delivered with SSAB Boron tolerances which meet and exceed the requirements in corresponding EN standards. Tighter tolerances are available on request.
Thickness
Cold rolled coils and sheet products: according to EN 10131. Tighter tolerances are available on request.
Hot rolled coils and sheet products: according to SSAB Boron thickness tolerances that exceed EN 10051 and correspond to 2/3 of EN 10051 as default value.
Length and Width
Cold rolled coils and sheet products: according to EN 10131. Tighter tolerances are available on request.
Hot rolled coils and sheets with mill edges: SSAB Boron width tolerances are corresponding to -0/+20 mm.
Hot rolled coils and sheets with cut edges: SSAB Boron width tolerances are corresponding to -0/+2 mm.
Shape
Hot rolled strip: according to EN 10051. Narrower tolerances are available on request.
Flatness
Hot rolled sheets: SSAB Boron tolerances guarantee a maximum flatness deviation of 6 mm/m in addition to the EN 10051 flatness requirements. Flatness guarantees only apply for cut to length sheets.
Surface Properties
