--- stable, durable, low-cost! ---

Modersohn was the driving force that led to the material 1.4362 being approved in the spring of 2006 for all fastenings in Resistance Class III of the General DIBT Approval Z-30.3-6.
The high strength of this material is ideal for rolled and cant profiles.

Compared to A4 (1.4404) and A5 (1.4571), the MBA bars made of D4 (1.4362):

  1. can withstand higher loads - thanks to the higher yield strength, now 400 N/mm² instead of 235 N/mm² - has greater rigidity, E-module now 200 kN instead of 174 kN
  2. has a higher fatigue strength when subjected to dynamic loads, which is improved by the mixed microstructure - there is less tendency towards strain hardening
  3. higher corrosion resistance, in particular in the case of chloride and hydrogen-induced stress crack corrosion, which is dangerous due to the fine hair cracks this produces, which are almost invisible
  4. superior high temperature resistance because it has been established that, due to the nickel and molybdenum content, even after 50 hrs. of high-temperature stress at 850°C, there were no significant losses of strength and toughness; the impact strength was still in excess of 90 joules!
  5. lower-cost and greater price stability, as the low nickel content and negligible molybdenum content means the material contains no alloying elements of any significant speculative value
