E350 / E450 Technical Datasheets – Mechanical & Chemical Breakdown

Table of Contents

E350 and E450 are high tensile structural steel plates defined under IS 2062, engineered for strength, toughness, and weldability. These datasheets help engineers, fabricators, and EPC contractors choose between the two based on yield strength, impact resistance, fabrication compatibility, and compliance.
We provide E350 and E450 in BO (normalized), BR (as rolled), and C (cold-worked) variants – each with different toughness levels and thermal treatments.

What Are E350 & E450 Plates Used For?

  • E350 Plates: Ideal for pressure vessels, structural supports, industrial sheds, bridges, and railway parts
  • E450 Plates: Used in cranes, offshore platforms, mining equipment, ship structures, and heavy machinery

Both plates are supplied with mill TC, impact-tested, CE/IBR/PED approved variants on request.

Industry Applications of E350 / E450

Industry E350 Plate Usage E450 Plate Usage
Construction Columns, roof trusses, bracing Cranes, towers, pylons
Fabrication Pressure vessels, tanks, transport Offshore rigs, mining rigs
Railways Coach parts, bridges Wagon chassis, bogie frames
Heavy Machinery Load frames, components Boom arms, counterweights

E350 / E450 – Chemical Composition (IS 2062:2022 Standard)

Element E350 Max % E450 Max %
C 0.20 0.23
Mn 1.55 1.60
S 0.040 0.040
P 0.045 0.045
Si 0.45 0.50

Both grades comply with IS 2062:2022 with optional fine grain and impact-tested variants.

Available Plate Sizes & Thickness

Parameter Range
Thickness 6 mm – 150 mm
Width 1250 mm – 3000 mm
Length 6000 mm – 12000 mm
Tolerance As per IS 1852 or EN 10029

Custom sizes, laser cutting, profile burning, and edge preparation services available at Hindustan Steel Corporation

Heat Treatment Variants – BR, BO & C Explained

  • E350 BR / E450 BR – As Rolled: for general fabrication
  • E350 BO / E450 BO – Normalized: better impact resistance
  • E350 C / E450 C – Cold Worked: higher dimensional accuracy
    Normalized variants are preferable for low-temperature or fatigue-load environments.

Weldability & Machining Characteristics

Both E350 and E450 plates offer good weldability, with slightly more heat control required for E450.

  • Recommended Welding Methods: SMAW, SAW, FCAW
  • Machining: No difficulty in drilling, boring, or shearing
  • Preheating: Advised for E450 above 40 mm thickness

UT testing, edge grinding, and WPS documentation support available.

Mill Certifications & Test Reports Supplied

Each plate is issued with:

  • IS 2062:2022 compliance certificate
  • EN 10204 3.1 / 3.2 mill TC
  • Ultrasonic test (Level 2/3)
  • Charpy Impact test (on BO/C variants)
  • Custom heat number and batch traceability

Additional tests as per project or tender specs are available on request.

E350/E450 Variants Supplied by Hindustan Steel

  • E350 BR / BO / C
  • E450 BR / BO / C
  • E350 Cu / E450 Cu (Copper-bearing for corrosion resistance)
