Hot Rolled 160x82x5.0x7.4 EN Steel I-Beams
Product Spotlights
H-beam is an economical and efficient structural steel shape with an optimized “H”-shaped cross-section, consisting of two flanges and a web. It offers high section modulus, light weight, and excellent bending strength. Typically manufactured through hot rolling or welding, H-beams are widely used in various load-bearing steel structures. Common foreign grades include: ASTM A992 (USA) Grade 50 (common for building construction); EN 10025 (Europe) S235, S275, S355 series; JIS G3192 (Japan) SS400, SM490A; and BS 4-1 (UK) Universal Beams (UB series). To look up technical standards and section properties, use the search term “H beam dimensions chart” for detailed data.
Main Applications
H-beams are widely used as main beams, columns, and bracing systems in steel-framed buildings, as well as in industrial plants, bridges, towers, platforms, tunnel supports, and heavy equipment foundations. In high-rise buildings, H-beams are often used in steel frame-concrete core hybrid structures; in bridge engineering, they are used as cross-beams or composite girders. For long-span applications, high-strength grades such as S355 or SM490 are commonly selected. For structural steel selection, search “H beam load capacity table” to view load capacity charts.
Fabrication and Connection Methods
H-beams can be cut, drilled, welded, and bolted according to design requirements. Because the inner and outer surfaces of the flanges are parallel, H-beams are well-suited for high-strength bolting or welded connections with other steel members. H-beams with different flange widths are further classified into wide flange (HW), medium flange (HM), and narrow flange (HN) series, suitable for columns, beams, and truss members respectively. For a comparison of these series, search using “HW vs HM vs HN steel” for detailed explanations.
International Trade and Selection Suggestions
In international sourcing, key factors to consider include steel grade, section dimensions (height × width × web thickness × flange thickness), weight per meter (kg/m), and applicable standard. Approximate grade equivalences exist across different standards — for example, ASTM A992 Grade 50 may correspond to S355 in EN 10025 or SM490A in JIS G3192. For technical comparison and substitution, use the search term “steel beam equivalent grade” for standard conversion. To find global H-beam suppliers or current price quotes, use “H beam suppliers USA” for reliable resources.
