What is IS 2062 Steel? Grades Explained for Buyers

IS 2062 is the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) specification for hot rolled carbon-manganese structural steel. It classifies steel into multiple grades based on tensile strength, yield strength, and weldability. These include:

  • Grade A – General structural use with basic strength
  • E250 (Fe410W) – Standard-grade structural steel with good formability
  • E350 (Fe490W) – High-strength grade for heavy-duty infrastructure
  • E450 (Fe590W) – Superior tensile grade for demanding load conditions

The “E” denotes “Yield Strength” in MPa, making it easier for designers and engineers to select based on structural performance requirements.

Applications of IS 2062 Plates in Infrastructure & Fabrication

IS 2062 plates are a go-to choice for structural steel fabricators and civil engineers due to their consistency, weldability, and economic pricing. Common use cases include:

  • Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEB) & Industrial Sheds
  • Transmission & Telecom Towers
  • Bridge Girders & Structural Decking
  • Offshore Platforms & Marine Frames
  • Railway Coaches, Wagons & Components
  • Boiler Support Frames & Power Equipment
  • Crane Booms, Tower Cranes & Loading Platforms
  • Steel Formwork & Pipe Supports in Infra Projects

Mechanical & Tensile Strength of IS 2062 E250 / E350 / E450

The following table summarizes the mechanical properties of the most used IS 2062 grades:

Grade Yield Strength (MPa) Tensile Strength (MPa) Elongation (%)
Grade A ≥ 250 410 – 540 ≥ 23
E250 ≥ 250 410 – 540 ≥ 23
E350 ≥ 350 490 – 610 ≥ 22
E450 ≥ 450 590 – 770 ≥ 20

These plates conform to IS 2062:2011 (latest revision) and are produced under controlled rolling, normalized, or thermomechanical conditions depending on the grade

IS 2062 Standards, Equivalent Grades & Classification

IS 2062 defines structural steel grades by chemical and mechanical parameters, including yield stress, elongation, and carbon-manganese content. These grades are also correlated with international equivalents, enabling global sourcing:

IS 2062 Grade Equivalent Standard Description
Grade A ASTM A36 / EN S235JR Basic structural use
E250 (Fe410W) EN S275JR / DIN St37 Standard-grade hot rolled plates
E350 (Fe490W) EN S355J2 / DIN St52 High-strength structural equivalent
E450 (Fe590W) EN S420 / S460 / A572 Extra high strength fabrication

All our plates comply with IS 2062:2011 (Rev. 3) and are supplied with chemical composition and test certification (MTC / TC).

Size Range, Thickness, Widths & Supply Conditions

At Hindustan Steel, we maintain a large stock of IS 2062 plates in the following configurations:

  1. Thickness: 5 mm to 150 mm
  2. Width: 1250 mm / 1500 mm / 2000 mm / 2500 mm
  3. Length: 6000 mm to 12000 mm or custom cut
  4. Supply Condition: As rolled / Normalized / Q+T (on request)

We also offer profile cutting, custom shapes, slitting, and beveling services based on buyer drawings.

Heat Treatment, Welding & Workability of IS 2062 Plates

IS 2062 steel plates are known for their excellent weldability, making them suitable for all common fabrication methods including:

  • MIG, TIG, and SAW welding
  • Bending, forming, and machining
  • Plasma cutting & laser profiling
  • Shot blasting & primer coating

Grades like E350 and E450 may be supplied in normalized or thermomechanically treated condition to enhance workability in critical stress-bearing components

Fabrication Guidelines for IS 2062 Grade A / E250 Plates

For efficient fabrication, buyers should consider:

  • Use pre-heating (100–150°C) for thick E350/E450 plates to avoid HAZ cracking
  • Maintain low hydrogen welding procedures
  • Use matching filler wires (e.g., ER70S-6) for optimal strength
  • Avoid high heat input during rolling or bending E450
  • Adhere to minimum bend radii specified in IS codes

We also provide cut-to-shape services, CNC plasma cutting, and edge preparation for faster integration at site or workshop.
