What is Material S275M EN 10025-4 TMCP Fine Grain?

Material S275M is a thermomechanically rolled (TMCP) weldable fine grain structural steel specified in EN 10025-4:2004 (current version 2019).

The designation “S275M” means:

  • S= structural steel
  • 275= minimum yield strength 275 MPa (transverse, thickness ≤ 16 mm)
  • M= thermomechanical rolling (TMCP delivery condition – controlled hot rolling + accelerated cooling, no separate normalizing)

The fine grain structure is achieved through controlled microalloying (Nb, V, Ti) and the TMCP process, resulting in ASTM grain size 8–11. This is what gives S275M its excellent combination of high strength, superior weldability, and good low-temperature toughness (≥40 J at –20 °C).

S275M is the entry-level high-strength grade in the EN 10025-4 family, perfectly balancing cost, strength, and weldability when service temperature is above –20 °C.

Applications of S275M Fine Grain Material

S275M is widely used when the service temperature is above –20 °C:

  • Light structural frames
  • Onshore wind turbine towers
  • Heavy machinery bases
  • Bridge components
  • General fabrication

When the temperature drops below –20 °C, the low-temperature version S275ML is required.

FAQ – Detailed Answers

Q1: What makes S275M "fine grain"?

A: The combination of low carbon, Al + Nb + V + Ti microalloying, and TMCP process produces ASTM grain size 8–11, which is the definition of "fine grain" and the reason for its superior toughness and weldability.

Q2: S275M vs S275ML difference?

A: The only difference is the impact test temperature. S275M is tested at –20 °C with minimum 40 J (longitudinal), while S275ML is tested at –50 °C with minimum 27 J. Yield strength, tensile strength, elongation, chemical composition, and weldability are exactly the same. Choose S275M when service temperature is above –20 °C; choose S275ML when below –20 °C.

Q4: What is the density and hardness of S275M?

A: Density is 7.85 g/cm³ (7850 kg/m³), hardness is 130–170 HBW (typical 140–160 HBW in our stock). These values are consistent across the entire thickness range.

Q5: What NDT do you provide as standard?

A: 100 % ultrasonic testing to EN 10160 S2/E2 is included with every plate. We can upgrade to S3/E3, magnetic particle (MT), or penetrant testing (PT) on request at no extra charge for reasonable quantities.

Q6: What is the maximum thickness you can supply for S275M?

A: Up to 200 mm with full properties and certification. We guarantee minimum yield of 225 MPa up to 180 mm and 215 MPa to 200 mm – significantly better than the standard requirement.

Q7: How fast can you deliver to Europe or USA?

A: From ready stock: 7–12 days to Rotterdam, Antwerp, Houston, or Los Angeles. We have regular consolidation containers and can offer air freight for urgent small quantities (<10 tons) in 48–72 hours.
