The influence of the preparation of structural steels on the anisotropy of the plastic properties is investigated. With increase in sulfur content, the banding and anisotropy of mechanical properties such as the impact strength is considerably increased. For example, in high-quality steel with the limiting sulfur content, the impact strength differs by a factor of 6–8 in the longitudinal and transverse directions.
