DIN17100 St 52‐3U/ DIN17100St 52‐3N Steel plate
DIN17100 St 52‐3U/ DIN17100St 52‐3N Steel Plates Resistant to Weathering grades are used for manufacturing
welded, riveted or bolted structures, e. g. in bridge, and vehicle construction. In general, the specific rust‐
building properties of Allwesta steel grades make surface protections of structures built of this steel grade
unnecessary, provided that the 'Stahl‐Eisen‐Werkstoffblatt' (Iron and steel material sheet) 087 Lieferung,
Verarbeitung und Anwendung(Weatherresistant structural steel, guidelines for delivery, processing and
application) is observed.
The user of these steel grades must make sure that his calculation, design and processing methods are
appropriate for the material and comply with the state‐of‐theart. The good properties of Allwesta steel grades
are not negatively affected by cold or hot‐forming. St 52‐3U/ St 52‐3N are recommended for cold‐forming.
Suitability for cold‐forming must be agreed upon in the order.
Specimens were fabricated from low‐carbon structural steel St 52‐3U/ St 52‐3N conformed to JUS EN 10025.
2003 Standard specification. Mechanical properties of the steel are given in Table 1.
