Blog / What is ST52 Profile? | Properties, Standards and Applications

ST52 is a steel quality grade used for structural steel profiles produced according to German standards (DIN 17100). It is widely used in structural applications requiring high strength.

ST52 Profile Properties

  • High Strength: Minimum 520 MPa tensile strength
  • Weldability: Easy welding capability
  • Cold Forming: Suitable for cold working
  • Impact Resistance: High impact toughness values

ST52 Mechanical Properties

  • Yield Strength: Minimum 355 MPa
  • Tensile Strength: 510-680 MPa
  • Elongation: Minimum 22%
  • Hardness: 150-180 HB

ST52 Profile Types

  • I Beams: INP, IPE, HE profiles
  • Angles: L profiles, equal and unequal legs
  • U Channels: UNP, UPE profiles
  • Rectangular Profiles: Box profiles

ST52 Applications

  • Industrial structures and steel constructions
  • Bridge and crane systems
  • Machinery and equipment manufacturing
  • Load-bearing systems and frame structures
  • Heavy-duty industrial racking systems

ST52 Standards and Equivalents

  • DIN: ST52-3
  • EN: S355JR
  • ASTM: A572 Grade 50
  • TS: TS EN 10025
