S355J2 and S355J0 channel beams are high-strength structural steel sections manufactured according to EN 10025-2. With a minimum yield strength of 355 MPa, these channel steels provide excellent load-bearing capacity, weldability, and structural stability for demanding engineering applications.
S355J2 and S355J0 channel beams
The main difference between the two grades lies in their low-temperature impact toughness, which determines the environments and structural conditions in which they are used.
As a professional steel supplier, Gnee provide UPN, UPE, and PFC channel beams in S355J0 and S355J2 grades, available in various sizes, customized lengths, and export-ready packaging for global projects.
S355J0 vs S355J2 Channel Beam – Key Difference
| Grade | Impact Test Temperature | Impact Energy | Typical Applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| S355J0 Channel Beam | 0°C | ≥27J | General structural engineering in moderate climates |
| S355J2 Channel Beam | -20°C | ≥27J | Cold regions, offshore structures, bridges, dynamic load structures |
S355J2 channel beams are recommended for projects that require higher safety margins in low-temperature environments or structures subjected to dynamic loads.
Chemical Composition of S355J0 / S355J2 Channel Steel
| Element | Content (%) |
|---|---|
| C | ≤0.24 |
| Mn | ≤1.60 |
| Si | ≤0.55 |
| P | ≤0.035 |
| S | ≤0.035 |
The relatively low carbon content ensures good weldability, making these steels suitable for complex welded structures.
