What is S235JR steel plate
Steel grade S235JR is a popular general construction and machine steel that is made in accordance with the EN 10025-2 standard.
S235JR describes non-alloy structural steels and falls in Part 2 of the EN 10025 specification. The S denotes a structural steel with a yield strength of 235 MPa. The JR designation confirms that the material has undergone a Charpy V-notch impact test at 27 joules at room temperature.

Applications of S235JR steel plate
S235JR steel plate is suitable for welding, bolted connections and riveting. It is readily weldable and bendable and suitable for non-critical structures. Its machinability characteristics are similar to that of mild steel.
It is typically used in the construction of buildings and bridges, vehicle structures, and tools and cutters. Plates are particularly suitable for shipbuilding.
