Home > Our Products > Structural Steel Plates > Grade / Standard> DIN St37-2 / St52-3
Hindustan Steel Corporation offers DIN St37-2 and St52-3 structural steel plates, manufactured as per DIN 17100 specifications. These German-standard plates are widely used for general structural and engineering applications due to their high strength, excellent formability, and weldability.
We supply cut-to-size, certified plates in both grades for buyers seeking cost-effective European equivalents of IS 2062 and EN 10025 steel plates — ideal for fabrication, civil infrastructure, pressure vessels, and machine components.
DIN 17100 is the German standard for hot-rolled structural steel plates used in construction and general engineering. It defines grades like:
Both grades are commonly used in steel structures, equipment manufacturing, and base frames. The number “37” or “52” refers to the minimum yield strength in kgf/mm², roughly equivalent to 235 MPa and 355 MPa respectively.
These grades serve as workhorse materials across industries where forming, welding, and strength are required in tandem:
St52-3 is especially preferred in applications requiring impact-tested, high-load components, while St37-2 serves well in standard fabrications.
| Property | St37-2 | St52-3 |
|---|---|---|
| Yield Strength | ≥ 235 MPa | ≥ 355 MPa |
| Tensile Strength | 360 – 510 MPa | 490 – 630 MPa |
| Elongation | ≥ 25% | ≥ 22% |
| Impact Resistance | Notch tested (opt) | 27J @ -20°C (std) |
| Density | 7.85 g/cm³ | 7.85 g/cm³ |
| Formability | Excellent | Good |
Plates are supplied in normalized (N) or as-rolled (AR) condition, based on project needs.
| Feature | St37-2 | St52-3 |
|---|---|---|
| Yield Strength | ≥ 235 MPa | ≥ 355 MPa |
| Tensile Strength | 360–510 MPa | 490–630 MPa |
| Ductility | Very High | Moderate–High |
| Impact Resistance | Optional | 27J @ -20°C |
| Cost | Lower | Slightly higher |
| Best For | Standard fabrication | Load-bearing structures |
Hindustan Steel offers DIN St37 and St52 plates in a wide dimensional spectrum:
We also provide nesting, cutting, edge preparation, and packaging for immediate fabrication use.
Both St37-2 and St52-3 plates are well-suited for fabrication, offering:
St52-3 is preferred in high-fatigue or dynamic applications due to its enhanced toughness.
| DIN Grade | EN Equivalent | IS Equivalent | ASTM Equivalent |
|---|---|---|---|
| St37-2 | S235JR | IS 2062 E250 | ASTM A36 |
| St52-3 | S355J2 | IS 2062 E350 | ASTM A572 Gr 50 |
This makes DIN 17100 grades compatible with international standards across Europe, India, and the USA — enabling easy substitution in global BOQs.
We are a preferred stockist and supplier for DIN structural grades because:
We serve PEB builders, tower fabricators, OEMs, EPCs, and global construction contractors.
These DIN plates are widely used in:
They’re preferred where economical pricing meets German-grade quality.
Hindustan Steel Corporation supplies DIN St37-2 and St52-3 structural steel plates to over 18+ countries, including:
Export Destinations:
We offer containerized shipments, mill test certificates, inspection reports, and documentation support to comply with international project specs.
| If Your Project Requires… | Choose This Grade |
|---|---|
| General fabrication, non-load-bearing jobs | DIN St37-2 |
| High strength, load-bearing or dynamic parts | DIN St52-3 |
| Equivalent to ASTM A36 or IS 2062 E250 | DIN St37-2 |
| Equivalent to ASTM A572 Gr 50 or IS 2062 E350 | DIN St52-3 |
Tip: If you’re unsure, our engineering team helps verify your drawing, thickness, and grade match.
We supply plates with complete documentation:
Every batch is traceable and quality-tested — ready for international audits.
Yes, DIN St52-3 is functionally equivalent to EN 10025 S355J2.
IS 2062 E350 is the Indian equivalent of St52-3. For St37-2, the equivalent is IS 2062 E250.
Yes. Both grades offer excellent weldability using standard methods (MIG, TIG, SMAW). Preheat may be needed for thick sections.
We supply from 5 mm to 150 mm thickness in both grades, with custom sizes cut to order.
Yes. DIN St37-2 closely matches the properties of ASTM A36 and IS 2062 E250.
Not by default. However, we offer shot blasting + primer coating to resist corrosion during storage and installation.
EN 10204 3.1 MTC, dimensional reports, stamping, chemical & mechanical test reports, and optional TPI reports.
Absolutely. Both are designed for structural steel applications with strong weldability and load-bearing ability.
Yes. We supply both project quantities and small lots from ready stock.
Yes. We supply plates with CE, ISO, and PED certification upon request.
Yes. We export to Poland, Romania, Germany, and Eastern Europe — compliant with DIN & EN norms.
Yes, in most cases — but always confirm with your structural engineer or OEM design spec
Ready-stock orders dispatch within 7–10 days. Project sizes and primer-coated plates take 15–20 days.
