Structural Steel

Carbon & structural steel for custom plate parts.

Buyers often compare Q355-family, S355-family, ASTM structural grades and Japanese structural grades. YUNCUT treats those comparisons as a starting point. The governing standard, subgrade, thickness, delivery condition and required documents are confirmed before any substitution is accepted.

“Equivalent” does not mean automatically interchangeable.

Yield strength is only one comparison point. Chemistry, thickness limits, impact requirements, delivery condition and testing rules can differ by standard.

Q355-familyState the exact subgrade and governing GB/T requirement rather than using “Q355” as a complete specification.
S355-familyState the EN grade/subgrade and any impact-temperature or delivery-condition requirement.
ASTM gradesA36, A572 Grade 50 and other ASTM products are reviewed against the required standard — not mapped one-to-one by strength alone.
Japanese gradesJIS structural grades are compared by the actual specification and use case; shorthand “same as” statements are avoided.
If a China-side alternative is proposed, the RFQ should identify it explicitly and record any material differences that matter to the buyer’s drawing, standard or acceptance criteria.
