Q355B Structural Steel Pipe
The current GB designation that replaced Q345B. Same structural role and near-identical mechanical envelope — if your drawing calls for either, we can usually supply from the same stock, confirmed against the mill certificate.

Q355B — common questions
- What is Q355B equivalent to?
- Q355B is closest to EN S355JR, ASTM A572 Gr.50. These are the standard comparisons used for sourcing; the mill certificate supplied with each shipment carries the actual chemistry and mechanical values for the heat.
- What sizes of Q355B do you stock?
- We currently hold 31 size combinations of Q355B, from Φ146mm to Φ426mm outside diameter with wall thickness from 20mm to 75mm.
- Can you supply Q355B heat treated?
- Yes. We supply Q355B in these delivery conditions: Hot rolled, Normalized, Quenched & tempered. Heat treatment is done in-house before shipment and process records with temperature curves ship with the goods.
- Can Q355B be cut to length before shipment?
- Yes. We saw-cut to fixed lengths with a typical tolerance of ±1–2mm and end squareness of ≤1mm/100mm, so the material can go straight onto your machine without a facing operation.
