Hoa Phat Dung Quat achieves mass production of European-standard high-strength steel S700MC, filling a gap in Vietnam

Share:

In May, the Dung Quat Steel Complex—a subsidiary of Vietnam’s Hoa Phat Group—successfully developed and produced S700MC, a high-strength structural steel meeting the European standard BS EN10149; this marks the first time this grade of steel has been manufactured domestically in Vietnam. JAH270C Hot dip galvanized steel strip,The product is intended for use as structural material in automobiles and heavy industrial machinery.

S700MC is a low-alloy, hot-rolled steel sheet characterized by high strength, excellent cold-formability, and superior weldability. With a yield strength exceeding 700 MPa, it offers superior load-bearing capacity and resistance to deformation compared to conventional steels. JAH270C Hot dip galvanized steel strip,Because it enables lightweighting while maintaining strength and safety, the product has a wide range of applications, including automotive chassis, trailers, construction machinery, cranes, and concrete pump trucks.

This steel grade is a high-performance material requiring rigorous quality control throughout the entire production process—spanning steelmaking, refining, continuous casting, and rolling. Hoa Phat has stated that it has mastered a suite of core technologies, including optimized chemical composition design, micro-alloying techniques, precipitation control, and thermo-mechanical control processes. The company notes that mass production of this product will help increase the localization rate of raw materials for the domestic machinery industry and reduce reliance on imports, while also enabling Vietnamese enterprises to participate more deeply in the global industrial materials supply chain.

Previously, Hoa Phat developed high-grade products such as PC steel, as well as steel for elevator and crane wire ropes. In the automotive sector, the company supplies wire rods for tire bead wire (e.g., SWRH82A and SWRH72A) and chassis steels (e.g., S315MC–S650MC and SAPH440). JAH270C Hot dip galvanized steel strip,Future plans include the development of high-strength automotive steel sheets such as DP600, DP780, and DP800. Additionally, the company is advancing the development of high-grade steels for the oil and gas industry—including K55, J55, X60, X70, and X80 grades—that meet API 5L and API 5CT standards.
