EN 10025-2 S275JR a non-alloy steel pipe supplied by Hebei K-Steel pipe Industry

 Overview of S275JR Steel of Hebei K-steel Pipe Industry

EN 10025-2 defines S275JR as a non-alloy steel grade widely used for general engineering and construction purposes.

“S” = Structural steel

“275” = Minimum yield strength of 275 MPa

“JR” = Impact test at +20°C (27J minimum)

2. Applicable Standards for Steel Pipes

S275JR material is typically used in pipes manufactured under:

2.1 Structural Steel Pipe Standards

Applications:

Structural tubing

Mechanical and construction pipes

2.2 Alternative Equivalent Standards

S275JR is often compared with:

ASTM A36 (USA equivalent)

3. Chemical Composition (Typical, %)

Element Content (%)

C (Carbon)≤ 0.21

Mn (Manganese)≤ 1.50

P (Phosphorus)≤ 0.035

S (Sulfur)≤ 0.035

N (Nitrogen)≤ 0.012

Low carbon content → good weldability and formability

4. Mechanical Properties

Property Value

Yield Strength≥ 275 MPa

Tensile Strength410 – 560 MPa

Elongation≥ 23%

Impact Test 27J @ +20°C

5. Manufacturing Process of S275JR Pipes

5.1 Common Production Methods

ERW (Electric Resistance Welded)

LSAW (Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welded)

Seamless (less common for this grade)

5.2 Delivery Conditions

As-rolled Normalized (optional for better properties)

6. Applications of S275JR Steel Pipes

Widely used in:

Structural construction (buildings, bridges)

Mechanical engineering

Steel frameworks

Low-pressure fluid transportation (water, air)

General fabrication

Not recommended for:

High-pressure pipelines

High-temperature or corrosive environments

7. Key Advantages

Good weldability

Moderate strength with good ductility

Cost-effective compared to alloy steels

Widely available in global markets

8. Limitations

Lower strength compared to high-grade steels (e.g., S355)

Limited corrosion resistance

Not suitable for oil & gas high-pressure service

9. Summary

S275JR steel pipe is a standard structural-grade carbon steel pipe under EN 10025-2, offering:

Reliable mechanical performance

Excellent fabrication properties

Broad application in construction and general engineering

Best suited for structural and low-pressure applications, rather than critical pipeline service.
