S460ML is the steel grade with the highest strength specified in EN10025-4 standard "thermomechanical rolled weldable fine grain structural steels". EN10025-4 standard specifies the chemical composition and mechanical properties of S460ML plate sheet.
Compared with Q460D steel plate of the same quality level in GB standard, EN10025-4 steel S460ML plate sheet has more stringent requirements on the addition of scandium, such as C, Mn and Nb.
