🟧 Product Overview

SS400, SS490, and SS540 Structural Carbon Steel Coils are widely used hot‑rolled structural steels under the JIS G3101 standard. SS400 is a mild structural steel with excellent weldability, SS490 provides moderate strength, and SS540 offers higher strength for demanding structural applications.

These grades are commonly used in construction, machinery manufacturing, steel structures, and general engineering applications. International equivalents include ASTM A36 / A572 and EN S235JR / S355JR.
