S275J2G4 is a low carbon, high tensile strength structural steel, which can be readily welded to other weldable steel. With its low carbon equivalent, it possesses good cold-forming properties. The plate is produced by fully killed steel process and supplied in normalized or controlled rolling condition.
S275J2G4 steel has a wide range of applications. Its applications range from the construction of bridges to oil and gas pipelines, shipbuilding and other structural applications including the manufacture of storage tanks, containers and other structural parts in both industrial and civil engineering projects.
In the transport sector, S275J2G4 is often used in the construction of heavy freight trains, and in other rolling stock, such as railcars, buses and lorries. Its high strength makes it suitable for the construction of bridges, while its low carbon content allows it to be used in the construction of lighter and more efficient structures, such as those used in the construction of mountain roads or other areas with heavy snowfall.
In the oil and gas sector, the steel is a versatile choice for many different components, such as pipes and pressure vessels. Its strength and low carbon content enables these parts to resist corrosion and environmental damage more effectively than other materials.
In the construction of containers, S275J2G4 has been shown to perform considerably better than other steels in numerous tests, including torsion, fatigue and impact tests, proving its reliability and suitability for the construction of high-quality, long-lasting containers.
For all its versatile and robust properties, S275J2G4 is a highly wear-resistant material and can be used in applications prone to frequent wear and tear, including the construction of wear-resistant structural components, such as shovels, buckets, wear liners and other parts of heavy machinery.
S275J2G4 also offers low lifecycle costs making it a cost-effective choice in many applications, requiring replacing less often than other materials such as aluminium.
In summary, S275J2G4 is an extremely versatile and reliable material that offers both high strength and low-cost solutions for a wide range of industrial and civil engineering applications. It is a particularly good choice for the transport sector, the construction of storage containers, and components prone to frequent wear and tear.
