The invention discloses ultrahigh tough steel with tensile strength of 1100 Mpa and a manufacturing method thereof. Chemical components of the tough steel comprises, by weight, 0.245-0.350% of C, 0.10-0.50% of Si, 0.20-1.20% of Mn, P less than or equal to 0.015%, S less than or equal to 0.003%, 0.30-1.20% of Cr, 0.20-0.80% of Mo, 2.00-3.70% of Ni, 0-0.30% of Cu, 0-0.08% of Nb, 0-0.12% of V, 0.01-0.08% of Al, 0.003-0.06% of Ti, Ca less than or equal to 0.005%, H less than or equal to 0.002%, N less than or equal to 0.0120%, O less than or equal to 0.0030%, Fe and inevitable impurities. The preparation method adopts
quenching plus
tempering heat treatment, and tempered martensites plus tempered bainites and residual
austenite tissue are obtained. The yield strength of steel is greater than or equal to 900 Mpa, the tensile strength is greater than or equal to 1100 Mpa, the charpy
impact energy Akv (-20 DEG C) is greater than or equal to 70 J, the elongation rate is greater than or equal to 15%, the
shrinkage rate of a fracture surface is greater than or equal to 50%, good strength, low-temperature
toughness and
plasticity are achieved, and the ultrahigh tough steel can be used for manufacturing high-performance ocean platform
mooring cables of R6 grade and the like.
