EN 10225 S355 G10 + N Introduce
EN 10225 is an European standard for hot rolled structural steel products that applies to steel sections (including wide flange beams), steel bars, wire rods, flat products (strip, plate, wide flats) and forgings that are manufactured for use in the offshore and related industries. EN 10225 S355 G10 + N specifies requirements for the manufacture of core components for offshore structures, including welded and fatigue performance criteria. It is also designed to provide weldable structural steels for use in the offshore industry, which have improved weldability when compared to traditional steels available.
Smelting temperature:1753°C - 1699°C

EN 10225 S355 G10 + N Material Mechanical Properties
EN 10225 S355 G10 + N steel has a wide range of physical properties that make it an ideal material for many different uses. It has a relatively low density of approximately 7.68 g/cm3, which makes it an excellent option for applications where strength to weight ratio is important. The high chromium content of the alloy also gives it excellent corrosion resistance, making it a suitable material for use in corrosive environments. Another benefit of its composition is good formability, as the alloy tends to be malleable enough to cold form as well as heat treatable.
