LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T Dual Phase — Cold Rolled Steel

LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T is a dual phase grade cold rolled steel conforming to the lucid material specifications. At 290 MPa minimum yield strength, this is intermediate-strength steel for structural cross-members, seat mounting brackets, and suspension component interfaces, with structural stamping capability for load-carrying components requiring consistent thickness reduction.

LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T is classified as a Dual Phase steel at 290 MPa yield and 490 MPa tensile. LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T at 290 MPa yield uses the dual-phase ferrite-martensite microstructure to deliver high work-hardening rates during forming, which translates to superior crash energy absorption in the finished component.

Ameristeel maintains a deep inventory of LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T in standard and custom gauges, available as coils, slit coils, sheets, or precision blanks. As a cold rolled product, LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T offers the tight thickness tolerances and controlled surface finish critical for visible and semi-exposed automotive applications. Every coil is third-party tested under our ISO 9001:2015 quality system.

LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T is supplied with the following coating options: hot-dip galvanized (zinc) for general corrosion resistance; galvanneal (zinc-iron alloy) for superior paint adhesion and weldability; electrogalvanized for precise coating weight control and smooth surface finish; zinc-magnesium for enhanced edge and cut-edge corrosion protection. At 290 MPa yield, the coating selection for LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T should account for forming severity and post-stamping corrosion exposure in the final application.

LMS-S008-CR-DP-290Y/490T at 290 MPa yield and 490 MPa tensile compares to LMS-S008-CR-DP-330Y/590T (40 MPa lower yield at 330 MPa and 490 MPa vs 590 MPa tensile) and LMS-S008-CR-BH-240Y/340T (50 MPa higher yield at 240 MPa and 490 MPa vs 340 MPa tensile). Selecting the right grade depends on the balance between strength requirements and forming complexity for your specific stamping application.
