Hot rolled flat steel
Quality steels are hot-rolled products that are more highly alloyed than normal structural steel (S235JR).
This is due to the fact that special requirements are placed on quality steels. Depending on the area of application, different grades are used. A distinction is made between unalloyed and alloyed quality steels.
Details
