Chemical Composition of S235 Steel Plate
S235 steel plates are composed of various elements that give the material its strength, durability, and weldability. Here's a breakdown of the chemical composition:
| Element | Limit | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Carbon (C) | ≤0.17 | % |
| Silicon (Si) | ≤0.35 | % |
| Manganese (Mn) | ≤0.65 | % |
| Phosphorus (P) | ≤0.030 | % |
| Sulfur (S) | ≤0.030 | % |
Mechanical Properties of S235 Steel Plate
S235 steel is known for its good mechanical properties, making it ideal for structural applications. Below are the typical mechanical properties for S235 steel plate:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Yield Strength | ≥225 MPa |
| Tensile Strength | 360–510 MPa |
| Elongation (A) | ≥20% |
Delivery Conditions of S235 Steel Plate
S235 steel plates are available in various delivery conditions to suit different applications:
- Hot Rolled
- Controlled Rolling
- Normalized
Each of these processes ensures that the steel plate meets the desired strength and mechanical performance for different environments.
Difference Between S235JR, S235J0, and S235J2
The three grades of S235 steel differ mainly in terms of impact temperature resistance. Here's how they compare:
| Grade | Impact Temperature | Description |
|---|---|---|
| S235JR | Normal Temperature | Standard grade for general use |
| S235J0 | 0°C Impact | Suitable for low-temperature applications |
| S235J2 | -20°C Impact | Best for severe cold environments |
Key Difference:
S235JR is ideal for standard applications,
S235J0 and S235J2 are designed for colder environments, with S235J2 being the most suitable for extreme temperatures down to -20°C.

What is S235J2 steel equivalent to?
S235J2 is equivalent to ASTM A283 Grade C, with similar strength and weldability. What is the hardness of S235J2? The typical Brinell hardness (HB) of S235J2 is 120–170 HB, depending on thickness and heat treatment.
What is S355J2 steel?
Essentially, S355J2 is micro-alloyed structural steel that is great for various mechanical engineering applications. It has very good weldability with max CEV=0.47 for all variants, and it is often delivered with a controlled silicon content to allow for good galvanizing properties.
Is S355J2 better than S355J0?
S355J0: Suitable for general structural applications where temperatures are around 0°C or higher. S355J2: More suitable for colder climates or applications where temperatures may drop to -20°C or lower, such as outdoor structures, bridges, or infrastructure in cold environments.
Is S355J2 N carbon steel?
The fabrication of S355J2+N plates uses only pure, low-carbon steel. They are ideal for welding since of their solid tensile strength
