Application

Steel grade S355J2 is characterised by an optimal set of mechanical characteristics, which determines its widespread use when manufacturing metal structures and products for construction and machine building purposes. It is used in industrial and civil engineering, as well as in the construction of oil and gas platforms, other offshore structures, power transmission towers and other metal structures. Steel S355J2 is actively used to manufacture elements of heavy ground and underground equipment (bulldozers, excavators and dump trucks), railway wagons and agricultural machinery.

 

Welding

Steel grade S355J2 has good weldability both with and without heating.
