Applications
S355J2G3 steel is a carbon manganese ,high yield non alloy steel. It is called S355 because of the average minimum yield for this material is 355 Mpa.As a structural steel,it has excellent strength and weldability.It can be readily welded to other weldable steel. For its low carbon equivalent, it possesses good cold-forming properties. S355J2G3 is generally supplied in a normalized condition.
16steel/20MnCr5 steel
Material Classification
European carburized, case hardening steel.
Primary Applications
Gears, worms, sealing bushings, and other components.
Key Features
Good hardenability and machinability; high surface hardness post heat treatment; notable low-temperature impact toughness.

Applications
EN 1.7131 steel (16MnCr5 material) is an European standard carburized steel (case hardening steel) with good hardenability and machinability. For larger cross-section parts, high surface hardness and wear resistance can be obtained after heat treatment, and low-temperature impact toughness is also high.
20MnCr5 steel (1.7147 material) is an European standard carburized steel (case hardening steel) with high strength and toughness and good hardenability. The quenching deformation is small, the low temperature toughness and the machinability are good, but the welding performance is low. It’s generally used after carburizing quenching or quenching and tempering.
