The MartINsite® steel family is an addition to ArcelorMittal's range of Advanced High Strength Steels. These steels enable lightweight structural elements to be created by a forming process such as roll forming.
Thanks to their excellent mechanical properties, these grades are particularly suitable for automotive safety parts for shock resistance. Typical parts are shown in the figure below:

MartINsite® steels with Electrogalvanised or Jetgal® coating have been optimised to provide excellent crash performance and corrosion protection, ensuring good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement.
MartINsite® steels exhibit good roll-forming, bending and hole-expansion behaviour.
For MartINsite® steel design rules, we recommend using bending radii greater than 3 times the thickness of the product.
Bending method: 90° edge forming
Please contact us for more information about forming MartINsite® steels in special thicknesses and with special coatings.
The MartINsite® range of steels has good resistance spot weldability. The welding range, determined in accordance with standard ISO 18278-2, is wide. The table below shows examples, for information only, of spot welding properties for MartINsite® similar welds in accordance with standard ISO 18278-2.

Laser welding tests have revealed no particular difficulties.
ArcelorMittal can provide technical assistance in adjusting the welding parameters for all steels in the MartINsite® range.
MartINsite® steels exhibit good fatigue properties on account of their very high mechanical strength. By way of example, the 2 graphs below show Wöhler curves for these MartINsite® steels. They are expressed in terms of stress amplitude versus cycles to failure. They are calculated for two loading ratios: either tension-compression R=-1 or tension-tension R=0.1.
Wöhler curves or S-N curves for a variety of MartINsite® steels:
The graph below shows the oligocyclic fatigue or E-N curves for the same steels. The curves plot strain amplitude versus number of reversals to failure (one cycle corresponds to two reversals). Other high and low cycle fatigue data can be provided on request.
ArcelorMittal can provide a full database on the fatigue performance of MartINsite® steels.
As a result of their very high YS and UTS values, MartINsite® steels are particularly well suited for anti-intrusion parts.
MartINsite® steels have been characterised in the 3-point bending test using top hat cross-section specimens impacted at 30 km/h. The tests showed very good impact behaviour of these steels. The following graph gives, for information only, the minimum potential weight saving for these steels compared with an CR340LA steel.
