Product Overview

Q235NH, Q355NH and Q355GNH are domestic standard weathering steel grades manufactured according to GB/T 4171. They are structural steel plates with atmospheric corrosion resistance, widely used in bridges, building structures, railway vehicles, engineering machinery and outdoor steel structures.

Q235NH is a low-grade domestic weathering steel with moderate strength and good formability. It is suitable for general structural parts, building components, railway vehicle parts and light-duty outdoor steel structures where atmospheric corrosion resistance is required.

Q355NH is a high-strength domestic weathering steel with good comprehensive mechanical properties. It combines high yield strength, good weldability and atmospheric corrosion resistance, making it suitable for bridges, heavy buildings, engineering machinery and large outdoor steel structures.

Q355GNH is a high-strength weathering steel with better corrosion resistance and toughness. It is suitable for more demanding applications such as railway vehicles, container frames, heavy-duty engineering machinery and important structural components exposed to corrosive outdoor environments.

These grades contain copper, chromium and nickel, which promote the formation of a dense and stable protective rust layer under alternating dry and wet atmospheric conditions. We can supply plates in various thicknesses and support cutting, bending, welding and fabrication according to customer drawings.
