Calculators and tools

Mobile apps and desktop tools that help you calculate for example wear or the benefits of upgrading to high-strength steel. You can also use the tools to optimize welding and scan the steel item to identify its origin.

Mobile apps

BendCalc

With BendCalc app, you can easily calculate the bending parameters for press braking of steels from SSAB.

SSAB steel wearcalc

WearCalc

Try out the new Hardox® WearCalc app and calculate the increased service life and payload when upgrading to Hardox® wear plate.

SSAB WeldCalc

WeldCalc

With WeldCalc app, you can easily calculate heat input, preheating temperatures and welding machine settings for Hardox® wear plates and Strenx® performance steels.

SSAB EcoUpgraded app

SSAB EcoUpgraded

With the free SSAB EcoUpgraded app, you can calculate how much the upgrading to high-strength steels reduces the weight of equipment, improves fuel economy and increases product lifetime – all of which reduce the carbon footprint.
