Products Details of S355J2 channel Steel
S355J2 U Channel Steel Beam is a high-strength structural steel profile widely used in construction, machinery manufacturing, and structural engineering projects.
Manufactured according to the EN 10025-2 standard, S355J2 steel provides excellent mechanical properties and reliable performance in demanding environments.
One of the key characteristics of S355J2 U channel steel is its excellent low-temperature toughness. The "J2" designation indicates that the material has a minimum impact energy of 27 Joules at −20°C, ensuring strong resistance to brittle fracture in cold climates or heavy-duty structural applications.
S355J2 channel steel offers a minimum yield strength of 355 MPa and good tensile strength, making it suitable for structures that require both high load-bearing capacity and structural stability. Its U-shaped cross-section provides efficient weight distribution while maintaining strong support performance.
In addition, S355J2 UPN channel steel features excellent weldability, machinability, and fabrication properties, allowing it to be easily cut, drilled, welded, or assembled into various structural frameworks.
As a professional steel supplier, we provide high-quality S355J2 U channel steel beams in multiple sizes and customized lengths.If you need the lastest quote of S355j2 channel steel bar, please contact us!

Application Of S355J2 Channel beam
1. Ordinary structural steel (like S235JR or S355JR) can become brittle and prone to sudden "brittle fracture" when temperatures drop below freezing, leading to catastrophic structural failure in bridges or buildings.
Our Marine and industrial environments accelerate rust and corrosion. Many steel channels have inconsistent chemical compositions that lead to "uneven galvanizing," resulting in peeling coatings and high maintenance costs.

2. Using low-grade steel requires thicker, heavier sections to meet load requirements, which increases the "dead weight" of trailers and cranes, leading to higher fuel consumption and lower payload capacity.
We provide S355J2 steel with controlled Silicon (Si) and Phosphorus (P) content, specifically optimized for Hot-Dip Galvanizing (HDG). This ensures a uniform, high-adhesion zinc coating that provides 30+ years of maintenance-free service in coastal ports and solar mounting structures.

FAQ of S355J2 channel Beam
What is S355J2 material?
S355J2 is a medium tensile, low carbon manganese steel which is readily weldable and possess good impact resistance (also in sub-zero temperatures). This material is commonly supplied in the untreated or normalized condition. Machinability of this material is similar to that of mild steel.
What is the difference between S235JR and S355J2?
Mechanical properties are the core indicators that distinguish these two types of steel. The yield strength of S355J2H can reach up to 355 N/mm², and the tensile strength is 470-630MPa; the yield strength of S235JRH is up to 235 N/mm², and the tensile strength is in the range of 360-510MPa.
What is the equivalent of S355 J2?
The equivalent of S355J2 EN 10025-2 is ASTM A572 Grade 50, DIN ST52-3, JIS SM490YA, and GB Q355D, with similar high strength and low-temperature toughness for structural use. Gangsteel's high-quality plates ensure compliance for your projects. For more, explore our BS EN 10025-2 material grade guide.
