S355J2+N Pipe Weight Chart (kg/m)
Weight per metre (kg/m) = (OD − WT) × WT × 0.02466, with OD and wall thickness in mm. The factor comes from S355J2+N's density of 7.85 g/cm³.
Example: 4" Sch 40S (114.30 × 6.02 mm)
(114.30 − 6.02) × 6.02 × 0.02466 = 16.08 kg/m
| NPS | OD mm | Sch 10S kg/m | Sch 40S kg/m |
|---|---|---|---|
| ½" | 21.34 | 1.00 | 1.27 |
| 1" | 33.40 | 2.09 | 2.50 |
| 2" | 60.33 | 3.93 | 5.44 |

S355J2+N Hollow Sections Price — What Decides It
Two quotes for "S355J2+N hollow sections" can differ by 20% and both be fair. We quote S355J2+N hollow sections per kg for full sizes and per piece for cut sizes. These six things move the price per kg, so you can compare offers like for like.
S355J2+N Hollow Sections Applications
S355J2+N is specified when the cheaper grade will not survive the service but a higher alloy would be more than the job needs. These are the jobs our buyers use it for.
How your S355J2+N hollow sections order runs
- 01Enquiry review — we confirm size, standard edition and documents against your MR or drawing.
- 02Heat selection & PMI — the mill certificate is checked and material is PMI-tested before processing.
- 03Processing — cutting, machining or bevelling to your specification, with heat numbers marked.
- 04Inspection — your third-party inspector witnesses, or we share photos and test reports.
- 05Packing & dispatch — seaworthy packing from Nhava Sheva (JNPT), Mumbai, FOB or CIF, documents sent before the vessel sails.
Welding & Fabricating S355J2+N Hollow Sections
S355J2+N welds by all common arc processes. A few points our buyers ask about:
| Matching filler | E7018 / ER70S-6 |
|---|---|
| Over-alloyed filler | Preheat thick sections |
| Preheat | As required by the WPS and code for the thickness |
| Cutting | Plasma or waterjet; grind off heat-tinted edges before welding |
Follow your approved WPS; this is general guidance.

FOB / CIF · Nhava Sheva (JNPT), MumbaiS355J2+N hollow sections — questions buyers ask
Is S355J2+N the same as EN 10025-2 S355J2+N?
Yes. EN 10025-2 S355J2+N, W.Nr 1.0577, High-strength structural steel all refer to the same material, and hollow sections is ordered to EN 10210 hot-finished hollow sections (S355J2H) whichever name is on the enquiry.
What is the difference between S355J2+N pipe and tube?
Pipe is ordered by nominal pipe size and schedule, for carrying fluids. Tube is ordered by exact outside diameter and wall, for heat exchangers and instruments, and is held to tighter tolerances.
Seamless or welded S355J2+N pipe — which should I buy?
Seamless (EN 10210 hot-finished hollow sections (S355J2H)) is the default for pressure and critical service. Welded (EN 10219 cold-formed hollow sections (S355J2H)) is cheaper in larger diameters and thinner walls and is accepted where the design code allows it.
Which pipe sizes do you supply?
NPS ⅛" to 24" in schedules 5S to XXS as per ASME B36.19 and B36.10, subject to mill availability; tube in OD and wall to order.
How is pipe packed for export?
In bundles or wooden boxes with end caps, marked with heat numbers, and loaded in containers from Nhava Sheva.
