Czech Quality Carbon Structural Steel
The Czech Republic is a country known for its high quality steel and metal solutions, made of carbon structural steel. This steel is classified in five classes based on their chemical composition, and the grades vary from S235JRC to S355J2C+N.
The steel is characterized by its unique characteristics and properties, such as its high durability, magnetic strength, resistance to wear and heat, and capacity to stand against vibration and environmental abrasion. It is also known to be workable and weldable, as well as to be resistant to corrosion in its pure form.
Structural steel is used in many construction projects and for buildings, heavy duty transportation and industrial use. That is why these specific grade steels are designed with the highest quality standards to be effective for a variety of applications.
The most common grade of Czech Steel is S235JRC, which is an iron-carbon alloy with a content of 0.17-1.40% of carbon, 0.50-1.00% of silicon, 0.35% of manganese, and 0.015% of phosphorous and sulfur. This grade of steel is made with a cold drawing process to create even parts with a precise size. The steel is corrosion resistant and suitable for welding, while its mechanical properties depend on the level of carbon content.
Another common variety is S355J2C+N, a low-carbon, high-strength alloy steel with a content of 0.20-1.50% of carbon, 0.50% of silicon, 1.70-2.00% of chromium, 0.30% of molybdenum, 0.10% of vanadium and 0.015% phosphorous and sulfur. This grade is perfect for welding, it is heat resistant and durable, and possesses excellent mechanical properties. These steels have an average elongation of 35 and can be easly bent and rolled.
Finally, there is a variety of other grade Czech structural steel, such as S235JRH and S355J2H. These steels are made with a hot-rolling process, and are characterized by their excellent strength properties and their high durability. These steels are usually indicated for the construction of construction beams and columns, and are commonly used in the construction of bridges and large buildings.
In conclusion, Czech structural steel is well known for its high quality and excellent properties. There are five classes of steel, each of them with different characteristics and applications. By combining the qualities of these grades of steel, projects can be well-crafted and completed to last and perform successfully in their designated function.
