This high level of mechanical strength obtained in parts lends these steels excellent fatigue strength and good
energy-absorption capacity, making them suitable for use in structural parts and reinforcements. Their strong strain
hardening combined with a pronounced bake hardening effect gives them excellent potential for reducing the
weight of structural parts and even skin parts, especially in the case of CR290Y490T-GI-E Extragal® or Ultragal®.
Applications
Given their high energy absorption capacity and fatigue strength, cold-rolled Dual Phase Steels are particularly
well suited for the manufacture of automotive structural and safety parts such as longitudinal beams,
crossmembers and reinforcements.
CR290Y490T-GI-E Extragal® or Ultragal® steel can be used to make visible parts with 20% higher dent resistance
than conventional high strength steels, resulting in a potential weight saving of some 15%.
As a result of its mechanical strength, hot-rolled Dual Phase 600 can be used to reduce the weight of structural
parts by decreasing their thickness. Relevant automotive applications include:
Wheel webs
Lightweight sections
Strut mounts
Fasteners

Forming
Dual Phase steels offer a good combination of strength and stampability as a result of their good ductility and
strain hardening capacity from the onset of deformation, which ensure uniform strain distribution and reduced local
thinning. For example, in the case of a Dual Phase 500 steel, the yield strength increases by about 120 MPa after
2% of plastic strain in uniaxial tension (a phenomenon known as work hardening or WH2). The yield strength can be
further increased through bake hardening (BH2) after paint curing.
CR290Y490T-GI-E Extragal® or Ultragal® steel can also be used to manufacture skin parts, as a result of its
excellent behaviour in expansion and in tension broadly.
Dual Phase steels can be drawn on conventional tools, subject to settings being optimised. For example, stamping
pressure should be increased by approximately 20% for a CR330Y590T-DP steel, compared to a micro-alloyed
(HSLA) type steel of the same thickness. It should be noted that these steels, especially the highest grades, are
sensitive to the so-called springback phenomenon. Component geometry must be carefully studied during design
(small die radius, reinforcement perpendicular to bends to stiffen open parts, etc.) and drawing sequence definition
(overbending, calibration tool, punch stroke, increased blank-clamping force, etc.).

Welding
Although Dual Phase steels are more highly alloyed than HSLA steels, they can be readily welded using
conventional resistance spot welding processes, provided the parameters used in industrial conditions are
adjusted. The table below gives examples, for information only, of some spot weld properties for Dual Phase steel
similar joints complying with the ISO 18278-2 standard.

For coated (galvanised and alloy galvanised) products, electrode service life tests show values characteristic of the
type of coating considered. The Dual Phase substrate does not affect the service lifespans obtained.
In butt or lap MAG (Metal Active Gas) arc welding, maximum hardness in the fusion zone does not exceed 300 HV
for a HR330Y580T-DP steel, whatever the parameters. The weld runs meet ISO 25817 Class B requirements.
Recommended welding consumables are:
Dual Phase steels have excellent mechanical strength in laser lap welding. Based on long shop-floor experience in
characterising its products, ArcelorMittal can provide technical assistance in adjusting the welding parameters for
Dual Phase steels.

Fatigue strength
As a result of their high mechanical strength, Dual Phase steels exhibit good fatigue properties. Examples of Wöhler
curves for a variety of Dual Phase steels are shown in the two graphs below. The curves plot maximum stress versus
number of cycles to failure. They are calculated for two loading ratios: tension-compression R=-1 and tension-
tension R=0.1.

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 make a Dual Phase steel fatigue performance database available to its customers.
Impact resistance
As a result of their very high tensile strength, Dual Phase steels are particularly suitable for parts designed to
absorb energy during an impact.
Dual Phase steels have been characterised in dynamic axial compression tests using a top-hat structure with a
spot-welded closure plate at an impact velocity of 56 km/h. These tests have demonstrated the good impact
behaviour of these steels. The following graph gives, for information only, the minimum potential weight saving for
some Dual Phase steels compared with an HSLA 380 steel.
