PROGRESSO
A versatile low-carbon structural profile
Q235B flat bar is a hot-rolled low-carbon steel section with a rectangular cross-section, produced to GB/T 700. Its controlled carbon content keeps the grade highly weldable while the manganese content provides dependable yield and tensile strength for everyday structural duty.
Widely used in steel structures, machine frames, parentesi, racks, railings and enclosure fabrication, Q235B flat bar offers the best cost-performance balance among ordinary structural steels — easy to cut, drill, bend and weld, available in a wide range of widths and thicknesses, and fully customizable in length.
Why choose Q235B flat bar
Chemical composition (wt%) — GB/T 700 Q235B
| Elemento | Carbonio (C) | Silicon (E) | Manganese (Mn) | Zolfo (S) | Phosphorus (P) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Contenuto | ≤ 0.20 | ≤ 0.35 | ≤ 1.40 | ≤ 0.045 | ≤ 0.045 |
Note: single values are maximum limits per GB/T 700. Residual copper ≤ 0.30%. Heat analysis applies to ladle samples.
Mechanical properties (thickness ≤ 16 mm)
| Proprietà | Yield Strength ReH | Tensile Strength Rm | Elongation A | Impact (20° C.) | Durezza (approx.) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Valore | ≥ 235 MPa | 370 – 500 MPa | ≥ 26% | ≥ 27 J | ~ 121 HBW |
