On April 1, UK-based steelmaker Corus, the European subsidiary of the Indian steel giant Tata Steel, announced that it has developed a new steel grade specifically for the automotive industry.
According to the company's statement, Corus will market a new grade of steel, Dual Phase (DP) 800HyPerform, an advanced high-strength steel designed specifically for the needs of the automotive industry.
DP800HyPerform combines the strength levels of a DP800 grade with the formability properties of a DP600 grade, without compromising on weldability. DP800HyPerform has been specifically developed for use in making lightweight automotive parts such as structural members and reinforcements that must be highly crash-resistant. Corus said that the product is available as hot dipped galvanized material and fulfils all typical automotive processing requirements.
