What is 130 ksi Min-Yield Steel Plate?
130 ksi minimum yield steel plate is a premium ultra-high-strength structural plate that has undergone quenching and tempering (Q&T). This heat treatment process greatly enhances its strength and toughness, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications such as semi-trailers, cranes, forestry equipment, and mining machinery.
It is engineered to deliver a minimum yield strength of 130 ksi (≈ 890 MPa), regardless of the specific alloying or heat treatment method used by the mill. Every order is backed by a Mill Test Report (MTR) to guarantee quality compliance.
