Product Specifications
Product Description
The 2500 x 1250 x 6mm Hot Rolled Plate – S275JR is a structural steel plate produced to BS EN 10025-2 standards. Manufactured using the hot rolling process, this plate offers excellent formability, weldability, and strength, making it suitable for a wide range of fabrication and structural applications.
Made from S275JR steel, this plate has a minimum yield strength of 275 MPa and is a commonly used general-purpose structural grade. The ‘JR’ designation confirms impact testing at 20°C, making it suitable for use in standard ambient conditions. This grade of S275 is ideal for projects that require reliable performance under moderate loads and consistent mechanical properties.
With dimensions of 2500mm x 1250mm and a 6mm thickness, this steel plate weighs approximately 147.19kg and is regularly specified in construction, manufacturing, and engineering environments.

FAQ
What does S275JR mean?
S275JR is a structural grade of steel defined by the BS EN 10025-2 standard. ?S275? indicates a minimum yield strength of 275 MPa, while ?JR? denotes impact testing at +20?C. It?s widely used in general construction and engineering.
Is this hot rolled plate easy to weld?
Yes. S275JR steel offers excellent weldability and is compatible with MIG, TIG, and MMA welding methods. It can also be cut, bent, and drilled using standard workshop equipment.
Can I use this plate outdoors?
Yes, but for exposed environments, it's recommended to apply a protective coating (such as paint or galvanising) to protect the steel from corrosion. S275 is not a weathering steel.
Is this steel plate suitable for structural load-bearing applications?
Yes. The 2500 x 1250 x 6mm Hot Rolled Plate is often used in load-bearing applications, provided it is specified correctly by a structural engineer. It?s commonly used in framing, bracing, and fabrication.
Do you offer cut-to-size options for this plate?
Yes. IMS can supply S275JR steel plates in standard stock sizes or cut to your required dimensions. Contact us for bespoke cutting services or bulk orders.
