Structural steel for construction, mechanical engineering, and the automotive industry

Structural steel from thyssenkrupp Steel for structures in bridge construction.

Unalloyed or general structural steel is a widely used material in construction and mechanical engineering. thyssenkrupp Steel supplies hot-rolled non-alloy structural steels according to the DIN EN 10025-2 standard.

These steels are characterized by their good weldability with all conventional welding processes, formability, and sufficient strength, making them ideal for use in load-bearing structures. The application areas of these steels are diverse and include the construction industry, mechanical engineering, and the automotive industry. Typical steel grades in this standard include S235, S275, and S355, which are distinguished by different minimum yield strengths and tensile strengths.
