(1) Average of three tests. Transverse to rolling direction. Single value min. 70% of specified average.
(2) For plate thicknesses under 12 mm sub-size Charpy-V specimen are used. The specified minimum value is then proportional to the specimen cross-section.
Mechanical Testing
Brinell hardness test according to EN ISO 6506-1 on each heat treatment individual.
Charpy impact test according to EN ISO 148 on each heat and thickness from 6 mm.
Tensile test according to EN ISO 6892 on each heat and thickness under 60 mm.
Ultrasonic testing
According to EN ISO 10 160 Class E3 S3 for thicknesses up to 80 mm and E1 S2 for > 80 mm.

Fabrication and Other Recommendations
Welding, bending and machining
T370HBW Class 2 ballistic steel is not intended for further heat treatment. If T370HBW Class 2 is heated above 590 °C after delivery from VANFORGE no guarantees for the properties of the steel are given.
Nitriding or surface coating may be carried out if the temperature is below 590 °C.
Appropriate health and safety precautions must be taken when welding, cutting, grinding or otherwise working on the product. Grinding, especially of primer coated plates, may produce dust with high particle concentration.
