Abstract

This invention is directed to a hot-rolled steel sheet having an essentially refined ferritic grain size, a balanced chemical composition comprising, by weight, 0.06 to 0.09% carbon, 1.0 to 1.6% manganese, 0.5% maximum silicon, 0.03 to 0.05% columbium, 0.06 to 0.12% vanadium, 0.010 to 0.025% nitrogen, 0.004% maximum sulfur, 0.02% maximum phosphorus, 0.02 to 0.08% aluminum, balance essentially iron, and characterized by 80 ksi minimum yield strength, improved transverse bendability, and improved sheared edge stretchability.
