S355MC Pickled Steel for Cold-formed Beams and Frame Fittings
Published
S355MC is a thermomechanically rolled steel for cold forming, commonly supplied as pickled coil. For cold-formed long channel beams and frame attachments, blank width, rolling direction, and post-bend end dimensions must be aligned before ordering—not just the strength grade. Jiangsu Gaozhen handles enquiries by grade, dimensions and processing requirements.
S355MC: material and applications
S355MC is a thermomechanically rolled steel for cold forming, supplied as pickled coil with a surface condition suited to subsequent cold bending and pre-paint preparation. The MC suffix and the governing standard are part of the grade designation; inquiries should not shorten it to S355 or accept any S355 as a substitute. Its selection value lies in the combined requirements of cold-formed structural parts for strength-to-yield matching and surface quality, making it suitable for evaluating long channel beams and frame attachments against drawings. Purchasing should specify coil thickness, width, and delivery condition, and retain the standard number. Whether it fits a specific load-bearing structure should be assessed with the part drawing, forming passes, and connection method—not judged solely by grade for vehicle or assembly qualification.

Material and Processing Path for Long Channel Attachments
Long channel attachments are typically formed from developed flat blanks by cold roll forming or press braking, then punched and end-trimmed. The developed width determines channel and flange dimensions; purchasing should calculate it from the drawing and allow trimming margin. Post-bend end dimensions are affected by springback and tooling conditions; trial runs should measure end length and hole position offset. In production, the same outline fed as plate versus slit coil differs in loading, alignment, and edge-quality checkpoints, and should be evaluated separately.
Inquiry Information and Purchasing Rationale
Inquiries are more useful when they include a section sketch, hole positions, length, and equipment route than a grade alone. Section and holes determine developed width and punching sequence; length affects cut-to-length or coil slitting options; the equipment route (plate blanking or slit-coil feeding) affects edge quality and loading method. Purchasing should ask the supplier to state the full grade, standard number, thickness, width, and delivery condition in the quotation, and to retain pickled surface requirements. Trial assembly should include connection parts and check hole alignment and end clearances, not just single-piece outline. The reason is that the cold-formed dimensional chain runs through blanking, forming, and connection; coil specifications alone cannot indicate assembly results.
FAQ: Is S355MC Equivalent to Any S355?
No. The MC suffix in S355MC indicates thermomechanical rolling for cold forming, and the governing standard must not be omitted; any S355 may refer to different delivery conditions and process routes. Purchasing should inquire with the full grade and standard, not substitute by strength grade alone. Whether it suits a given long channel attachment still requires drawing-based assessment of forming and connection requirements.
S355MC dimensions and supply enquiry
The Gaozhen S355MC product page lists these catalogue dimensions: Thickness range: 0.8-20 mm; Width range: 1000/1250/1500 mm. These values support specification discussions; confirm the required combination of gauge, width and condition for the material.
Discuss pickled stock alongside cut-to-length, slitting and drawing-based cutting. Include the later manufacturing route for parts requiring bending or joining.
