This SAE Recommended Practice defines various grades of continuously cast high-strength sheet steels and establishes mechanical property ranges. These sheet steels can be formed, welded, assembled and painted in automotive manufacturing processes. They can be specified as hot-rolled or cold-rolled sheet. Furthermore, they can be coated (hot-dipped galvanized, hot-dipped galvannealed, and electrogalvanized) or uncoated. Not all combinations of strength, dimensions and coatings may be commercially available; consult your steel supplier for details. This is a global, advanced high strength sheet steel specification, which incorporates and commonizes the most widely accepted grades and respective strength levels presently available in the world market. It incorporates both minimum tensile and minimum yield strength callouts in the grade nomenclature.
