S235JRG2 Material S235JRG2C+C (1.0122)
S235JRG2 material is a European standard non-alloy structural steel grade, a former designation in accordance with EN 10025-2: 1993. S235JRG2C steel number is 1.0112. This steel name has been replaced by S235JR according to EN 10025-2: 2004.
S235JRG2C+C, S235JRG2 Meaning (Designation)
- “S” is short for Structural Steel;
- “235” refers to the minimum yield strength value (MPa) for the steel thickness ≤ 16mm;
- “JR” means the impact energy value 27 J at room temperature.
- “G2” is a subdivided quality grade.
- “C” means the steel is suitable for cold drawing.
- “+C” is for “cold work hardened”.
