EN S275JRC High Manganese, Structural, Hot Rolled, Quality Steel Product Information -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: # **Product Name:** EN S275JRC Structural Steel for Cold Forming, Hot Rolled, Base Material **Overview:** EN S275JRC is a **specialized non-alloy structural steel** defined under EN 10025-2, belonging to the S275 strength category. It is distinguished by the supplementary designation **"C"**, which explicitly indicates the steel is **intended for cold forming** and has a chemical composition optimized for this purpose. It provides the fundamental strength and room-temperature toughness of the base S275JR grade, but with **significantly enhanced ductility and cold workability**. This makes it the preferred choice for manufacturing components that undergo significant deformation such as bending, roll-forming, or stamping. It is **not a "High Manganese" steel**; its defining characteristic is superior formability, not elevated manganese content. **Key International Standards:** * **Primary Standard:** **EN 10025-2:2019** - Hot rolled products of structural steels - Part 2: Technical delivery conditions for non-alloy structural steels. * **Grade & Designation Decoding:** **S275JRC** * **S:** Structural Steel. * **275:** Minimum yield strength in MPa (for nominal thickness ≤ 16mm). * **JR:** Base quality designation. Impact tested at **Room Temperature (+20°C)**. * **C:** **Critical supplementary designation** for **steels intended for cold forming**. This mandates stricter chemical limits than standard S275JR. * **Core Concept:** This is a **Base Material with a special purpose**. The "C" elevates it from a general-purpose S275JR to a fabrication-optimized grade, but it retains the basic JR toughness level (suitable only for temperatures ≥ +20°C). * **Clarification on "High Manganese":** This is **incorrect and misleading**. S275JRC has a standard manganese range for its class. Its premium lies in **controlled chemistry for forming ("C")**, not in alloy content. The term should be avoided. * **Common Equivalents:** No direct global equivalent exists for the EN "C" classification. It can be loosely compared to **cold-forming grades of ASTM A36 or A572 Grade 40** with supplemental bending requirements. **Chemical Composition (Ladle Analysis, % by weight, maximum values per EN 10025-2 for 'C' grades):** The composition is tailored for maximum ductility and reduced risk of cracking during cold work. * **Carbon (C):** ≤ **0.20%** (Often targeted at the lower end for better formability). * **Manganese (Mn):** ≤ **1.50%** (Standard for S275, not elevated). * **Phosphorus (P):** ≤ **0.030%** (**Key Differentiator** - Tighter than the 0.040% limit for standard S275JR. Reduces "cold shortness"). * **Sulphur (S):** ≤ **0.030%** (**Key Differentiator** - Tighter than the 0.040% limit for standard S275JR. Improves ductility and edge formability). * **Nitrogen (N):** ≤ **0.014%**. * **Note:** The significantly lower maximum limits for Phosphorus and Sulphur are the defining chemical features that enable its superior cold forming performance. **Physical & Mechanical Properties (for hot-rolled condition, thickness ≤ 16mm):** * **Yield Strength (ReH):** ≥ **275 MPa** (Minimum for t ≤ 16mm; decreases with thickness). * **Tensile Strength (Rm):** **410 - 560 MPa**. * **Elongation at Break (A5):** ≥ **22%** (Minimum, typically good due to favorable chemistry). * **Impact Energy (KV):** ≥ **27 J at +20°C** (Longitudinal, Charpy V-notch). **CRITICAL: No toughness guarantee below +20°C.** * **Cold Formability:** **Excellent – The Primary Feature.** The steel is certified to withstand significant cold deformation (bending, roll-forming, punching, stamping) in its thickness range with a **markedly reduced risk of cracking** at the edges or in the bend zone compared to standard S275JR. * **Density:** **~7.85 g/cm³**. * **Modulus of Elasticity:** **210 GPa**. **Product Features:** 1. **Optimized for Cold Forming (Primary Feature):** The "C" chemistry ensures the material can withstand severe cold bending and forming operations without failure, reducing scrap rates and enabling more complex designs. 2. **Maintained Base Strength & Weldability:** Retains the strength and excellent weldability of the S275 family. Pre-heating is generally not required for typical thicknesses. 3. **Cost-Effective for Fabrication:** While potentially slightly more expensive than standard S275JR, it can lead to overall cost savings by improving production yield and allowing for more complex formed shapes. 4. **Predictable Behavior:** Provides consistent and reliable performance during press-brake and roll-forming operations. **Typical Applications:** S275JRC is specified where components require significant cold working and higher strength than S235. * **Heavy Fabrication:** **Press-braked brackets, stiffeners, chassis components, and support frames** requiring tight bend radii. * **Construction & Architecture:** **Cold-formed structural sections (purlins, girts), connection plates, and base plates**. * **Transportation Equipment:** **Cold-formed parts for trailer undercarriages, body supports, and container components**. * **Storage & Material Handling:** **Roll-formed uprights and beams for heavy-duty racking and shelving systems**. * **General Metal Fabrication:** Any part where the design involves **significant bending or forming after blanking**. **Available Forms & Processing:** * **Forms:** Commonly supplied as **hot-rolled sheet and strip** (in coils or cut lengths), **plates**, and **flat bars**. * **Surface:** Typically with mill scale. Often supplied as **pickled and oiled (PO)** for critical forming applications to improve tool life and surface finish. * **Processing:** **Ideal for shearing, punching, and especially press-brake bending and roll-forming.** Also perfectly weldable. --- **Critical Procurement Note:** * **Must Specify "C":** It is imperative to specify the full designation **"S275JRC"**. Ordering "S275JR" will deliver standard material with higher P and S, which is more prone to cracking during aggressive forming. * **Temperature Limitation:** Like all JR grades, it is **not suitable** for service temperatures below **0°C** under dynamic loading. For cold-formed parts in cold environments, **S275J0C** or **S275J2C** must be used. * **Not "High Manganese":** Do not use this term. Its value proposition is **"Cold-Formable Base Structural Steel."** * **Thickness-Strength:** Confirm the applicable minimum yield strength for the ordered thickness from EN 10025-2 tables. * **Designation Clarification:** Some older documents or labels might use **"S275JRG1C"**, which is technically more precise (G1 = as-rolled) but **"S275JRC"** is the functionally equivalent and commonly used term. -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: EN S275JRC High Manganese, Structural, Hot Rolled, Quality Steel Specification Dimensions Size： Diameter 20-1000 mm Length <5830 mm Size:We can customized as required Standard： Per your request or drawing We can customized as required Properties（Theoretical） Chemical Composition -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -: EN S275JRC High Manganese, Structural, Hot Rolled, Quality Steel Properties -:- For detailed product information, please contact sales. -:
