Loader crane with Weldox steel

SSAB’s development work is the result of customer demand. Many large crane manufacturers now use Weldox 1100 and have demanded a structural steel with even higher yield strength. Weldox1300 has a variety of applications, depending on the specific needs of the customer. While mainly used for mobile and truck-mounted cranes, the steel can also be adapted for special applications such as keels for ocean racing boats. Weldable, bendable and suitable for cutting, this new construction steel is a viable alternative to titanium and aluminum in certain applications.
