EN 10219 S275JOH carbon steel pipe is a cold-formed structural hollow section made from low-carbon steel, widely used in construction and engineering due to its good weldability, moderate strength, and cost efficiency.
1. What Is EN 10219 S275JOH?
EN 10219 S275JOH refers to a non-alloy structural steel grade defined under the EN 10219 standard, which covers cold-formed welded hollow sections (not seamless).
“S” = Structural steel
“275” = Minimum yield strength of 275 MPa
“JOH” = Impact test at 0°C + hollow section application
These pipes are typically produced in:
Square Hollow Sections (SHS)
Rectangular Hollow Sections (RHS)
Circular Hollow Sections (CHS)
