What is S250GD | 1.0242?
S250GD (1.0242) is a structural steel grade under EN 10346, mainly used for galvanized steel. "S" denotes structural steel, "250" indicates the minimum yield strength in MPa, and "GD" signifies its suitability for galvanization. It contains carbon, manganese, and silicon, with stringent limits on sulfur and phosphorus. Common methods include hot-dip and electro-galvanizing, producing galvanized sheets or coils for construction, appliances, and automotive industries.

S250GD Steel Surface Treatments Types
We offer a variety of surface treatments to meet different protection and aesthetic needs:
Chromating: If your steel needs to be exposed to humid or corrosive environments for a long time, chromating can significantly improve corrosion resistance.
Phosphate treatment: suitable for projects that require painting, enhances paint adhesion and ensures a stronger paint surface.
Oiling: provides temporary anti-rust effect during product storage and transportation, suitable for steel that requires short-term protection.
Painting: increases both protection and aesthetics. If your project has decorative requirements for the appearance, you can choose painting.
