Product Overview

Q235B carbon steel plate conforms to GB/T700 Chinese standard, it is the most widely used mild structural carbon steel plate for global construction and metal fabrication industry. The grade name “Q235B” means the minimum yield strength reaches 235MPa, and B grade requires 20℃ Charpy V-notch impact test, which distinguishes it from Q235A without impact test.
This hot rolled carbon steel plate features low carbon content, balanced plasticity, toughness and weldability. It can be easily cut, bent, welded, stamped and machined without complicated heat treatment. Q235B plate is commonly used to manufacture building steel frames, support brackets, equipment bases, container frames, metal structures and general mechanical components.
Our Q235B steel plates are available in full thickness range from 1.5mm up to 100mm, with standard width and length options, also we provide custom cutting, surface blasting, painting and slitting service. All products come with mill test certificate (MTC), and can support ISO, SGS, CE third-party inspection before shipment.
We maintain stable stock and flexible MOQ to satisfy both small project orders and bulk engineering procurement. Equivalent international grades include EN S235JR, ASTM A36, JIS SS330, GOST St37-2, which makes Q235B a popular alternative material for worldwide structural projects. Our products are widely exported to Southeast Asia, Middle East, Africa and Latin America for civil engineering and metal fabrication works.

FAQs

Q235B is GB/T700 hot rolled mild structural carbon steel plate with minimum yield strength 235MPa, B grade requires 20℃ Charpy impact test. Equivalent grades: EN S235JR, ASTM A36, JIS SS330, GOST St37-2.

Yes for most general construction and metal fabrication projects. There are slight differences in chemical limits and impact requirements. For heavy critical structures, consult your engineer before substitution.

Widely used for building frames, equipment bases, support brackets, container frames, metal fabrication, general mechanical components.

Thickness from 1.5mm to 100mm. Standard width & length available. We provide custom cutting, flattening and machining service according to customer drawings.

Q235B, A36 and S235JR all have excellent weldability. Preheating is not required for normal welding under room temperature for regular thickness.

Mill Test Certificate EN10204 3.1 is provided. SGS, BV third-party inspection reports can be arranged before loading, together with commercial invoice, packing list and bill of lading.
