S355j2w n equivalent
S355J2W+N steel, a weathering steel conforming to EN 10025-5, is equivalent to several grades in other standards, most notably ASTM A588 and JIS G3125 SPA-H. Additionally, in some contexts, Corten B or S355J0W can be considered equivalent, particularly when referring to weathering steel with similar atmospheric corrosion resistance.
European Standard (EN 10025-5): S355J2W is the specific designation for this weathering steel.
American Standard (ASTM): ASTM A588 Grade B is the most common equivalent in the US.
Japanese Standard (JIS): SPA-H is the Japanese equivalent of Corten B.
Chinese Standard (GB): Q355GNH is the Chinese equivalent.
Corten B: S355J2W and Corten B are essentially the same material. They share similar properties, including atmospheric corrosion resistance due to the protective oxide layer that forms on the surface.
What is the difference between ASTM A572 and S355j2w?
ASTM A572 steel plate is a popular grade of high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steel that is typically used in structural applications. A572 steel contains chemical alloys that enhance the material's hardness and ability to bear weight, and this material is lightweight relative to steel grades with similar compositions.
S355J2W is a weathering steel, also known as atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel, defined by the European standard EN 10025-5. It's a structural steel with improved resistance to atmospheric corrosion, meaning it forms a protective rust layer that helps prevent further corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor applications without needing painting. The "S355" indicates a minimum yield strength of 355 MPa, while "J2" specifies a minimum impact energy of 27J at -20°C. The "W" signifies its improved atmospheric corrosion resistance.
