SS400 Hollow Section VS S355JR Hollow Section

 

S355JR is a hot-rolled, weldable, fine-grained structural steel defined in European standard EN 10025-2. Its minimum yield strength is 355 MPa, and "JR" indicates that the material has an impact absorption energy of not less than 34 J at room temperature. Its chemical composition mainly includes carbon, manganese, and silicon, with a carbon content not exceeding 0.21%. Mechanical properties include tensile strength between 470-630 MPa and elongation typically not less than 21%. This material is widely used in building structures, bridges, vehicles, and machinery manufacturing, and possesses good processing and welding properties.

 

SS400 structural pipe is a Japanese standard carbon structural steel with a tensile strength reaching 400 MPa. Due to its moderate carbon content, it has good overall performance, with a good balance of strength, plasticity, and weldability, making it the most widely used. SS400 steel plate itself possesses a comprehensive range of excellent properties, including high strength, high toughness, fatigue resistance, impact resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, weldability, and ease of processing.
