Decoding 09G2S
The marking of steel 09G2S indicates the chemical composition of the alloy:
- carbon fraction in the alloy - 09;
- fluctuation in the share of manganese 2% in the total volume of G2;
- share of silicon up to 1% - C.
Additional components are added to the 09G2S alloy: sulfur, chromium, phosphorus, nickel, copper, aluminum, and nitrogen. They are not indicated in the labeling, because the share does not exceed 1% of the alloy volume. The marking of steel does not always correspond to the chemical composition; steel is marked according to its structure, purpose, manufacturing methods, and chemical properties. Sometimes there is confusion in the markings, for example, 09G2S is confused with steel 354. However, 345 is a fluidity marker that has nothing to do with the chemical composition; steel with this marking is intended for use in construction.
Calculation of the hardness value in the heat-affected zone
The next parameter to pay attention to is the hardness of the heat-affected zone (HAZ). This is the name given to the section of the product that is located near the formed seam. In this region, under the influence of temperature, phase transformations occur with a change in the internal structure of the metal. Sometimes this can lead to the steel becoming brittle.
The hardness of the metal in this zone is determined using the Vickers method. If its values are in the range of 350-400 on a special HV scale, then in the HAZ area there are definitely decomposition products of austenite (one of the modifications of iron and its alloys), which initiate the formation of cold cracks.
The maximum hardness value of carbon and low-alloy steel is calculated using data on the chemical composition of the metal using this formula:
where C, Mn, Si, Cr, Ni are mass fractions (in percent) of chemical elements.
Advantages and disadvantages of 09G2S
The only drawback of 09G2S steel is its instability to rust. There are many more advantages:
- strength;
- duration of service life under normal conditions (more than 30 years);
- heat resistance does not lose shape at temperatures from about -70 to 425C;
- no temper fragility;
- good weldability;
- low cost;
- high resistance to mechanical stress;
- undemanding processing.
Susceptibility to rust limits the scope of use of products made from 09G2S steel, but its advantages over other alloys make it the most popular and widespread.
Application of steel 09G2S
The material is successfully used for the manufacture of wear-resistant building products. These are channels, load-bearing beams, fencing corners and other products. In other industries, indicators such as the temperature range of steel stability are in demand. For example, laying a pipeline in the north of Russia imposes certain requirements on the material used to make pipes. Resistance to low temperatures down to -70 and efficiency of 09G2S steel is an ideal combination for laying communications that are costly in terms of quantity of material and exposed to low temperatures, including pipelines. 09G2S steel is popular in the automotive industry and in the chemical industry due to its resistance to chemical and biological influences, as well as its high strength of bolt fastening of products.

Features of welding steel 09G2S
Steel 09G2S is easy to weld; this property is ensured by the low carbon content in the alloy. There are no heating requirements; you can cook without preliminary heat treatment; this does not affect the strength of the seam. There are any welding methods and equipment; you can weld with a gas torch or an electric arc under a submerged arc. Steel products do not require hardening before or after welding and do not overheat during welding, so the grain size and ductility of the material do not change. Because 09G2S is a low-alloy low-carbon alloy; when welding it is necessary to use various electrodes for the appropriate purpose.

Chemical composition
The definition of 09G2S steel as low-alloy means that the content of alloying additives in the chemical composition of the alloy is minimal. As the percentage of an element or additive increases, the steel marking changes. This marking defines 09G2S steel as silicon-manganese, which means that the remaining additives in total do not exceed 1-2% of the total volume of the alloy.

Comparison of 09G2S with brand 17G1S
Two popular grades of steel have a similar composition, but differ in a number of characteristics, especially in structure. The martensitic structure of 09G2S steel is optimal for load-bearing structures, therefore 09G2S steel is defined as structural and is widely used in construction. 17G1S is almost never used for the manufacture of load-bearing structures. The increased carbon content in this alloy ensures the formation of a ferritic structure, which, despite its strength, is more suitable and makes it possible to lay underground communications. Therefore, 17G1S steel is used to make pipes for heating networks and industrial engineering systems. It is also inferior in frost resistance, its lower temperature limit is -40C versus -70C for the 09G2S alloy, but is characterized by increased resistance to high temperatures up to +475C versus +425 degrees in the case of 09G2S.
Manufacturing
The basis for the manufacture of the material is cast iron. It goes through a long optimization process, during which the amount of carbon in the composition increases and the basic properties of the metal improve. To achieve certain technical characteristics, additional alloying additives are added.
- Open-hearth method. An industrial furnace is loaded with scrap, cast iron, charge, and additional components. A pile of metal is melted using a torch of burning fuel. Once the scrap is melted, alloying components are added to the bath. When carrying out the procedure, special open-hearth furnaces are used, which can smelt up to 900 tons of metal at a time.
- Electrothermal method. During production, an industrial electric furnace is used, with which you can accurately set the heating mode and control the metal production process. The main advantage of the technology is the ability to obtain metal with the lowest content of harmful impurities (phosphorus, sulfur). Thanks to the ability to set very high heating temperatures, it is possible to obtain specialized types of steel with unique technical characteristics.
- Converter. Molten cast iron is poured into the melting apparatus and purged with oxygen. The impurities contained in the cast iron begin to oxidize. Oxidation releases a large amount of heat, which increases the overall temperature to 1600 °C.
What is the difference between galvanized, stainless and black steel
Speaking about corrosion resistance indicators, stainless steel is preferable to galvanized and black steel; these are different categories of protection. Galvanized steel is protected from corrosion by a thin or thick layer of zinc, and stainless steel is protected by the content of alloying additives in the alloy structure. This is a big difference, because... It is easy to damage the zinc layer, revealing unprotected steel behind it. Stainless steel does not need a protective film; it is protected from the inside by its own chemical properties until the end of its service life; the absence of a coating does not affect it in any way.
Black steel has no protection at all, so it is the most susceptible to corrosion. To increase its service life, it is recommended to coat it with powder paint and process it in a polymerization oven.
By service life
The service life of working parts for each of the steels differs by a factor of two: 50 years for the first versus 25 years for the second and 10 years for the third. And these are average figures, because... Due to damage to the zinc layer, the product will most likely fail earlier. Black steel is the least wear-resistant.
Environmentally friendly
When heated or exposed to acids, zinc releases harmful compounds zinc oxide and phosphides. Poisoning can be of varying strength, including death if the damage is extensive. Stainless steel is completely safe in any product and has proven itself in the production of cookware. Ferrous metal is also not toxic, but due to its susceptibility to corrosion, it is almost always isolated from humans by a protective layer of paint.
By cost
The lower limit of the cost of 1 ton of ordinary stainless steel sheet is 113 thousand rubles. A galvanized hot-rolled sheet of the same weight can be purchased at a price of 67 thousand rubles. The price of the same sheet of black steel starts from 45 thousand rubles. The cost is also influenced by the quality characteristics of the steel and the choice of manufacturers. Read more about this in the materials on our website.
Determination of steel sensitivity to cold cracking
Cold cracks form after welding due to tensile residual stresses. Their strength depends on the rigidity of the resulting structure and the thickness of the seam. Its value can be determined by the stiffness intensity coefficient - K. It characterizes the applied force, which opens the gap by 1 mm, which is also 1 mm wide in the welded joint. It is calculated like this:
where Kq is a constant, which is considered to be equal to 69, S is the thickness of the steel sheet (in mm). It is important to note that the ratio is only valid if the sheet thickness does not exceed 150 mm.
How steel can be susceptible to cold cracking can be determined by the parametric equation:
where Рш is the “embrittlement” coefficient (this is the name for the process when a metal goes from a viscous state to a brittle one), H is the amount of diffusion hydrogen, K is the hardness intensity coefficient.
The value of Psh is found by solving the Bes-Sio equation:
The results of repeated studies helped to establish the threshold value at which the sensitivity of steel to the formation of cold cracks manifests itself. This happens if the Pw value exceeds 0.286.
