EN 10025-2 E295 vs CSA G40.21 400A

Minimal Match — 35% match based on chemical composition and mechanical property overlap.

EN 10025-2 E295 (EN 10025-2:2019) and CSA G40.21 400A (CSA G40.21-13 (R2023)) are both steel grades. Both fall under the Structural Steel category. EN 10025-2 E295 is typically used for hot rolled products of structural steels, while CSA G40.21 400A is commonly used for atmospheric corrosion-resistant (weathering) structural steel; exposed bridge girders and structural members where high strength and weathering resistance are both needed. EN 10025-2 E295 is defined under European Standard (EN), originating from Europe, while CSA G40.21 400A is defined under Canadian Standards Association (CSA), originating from Canada.

As per chemical composition, EN 10025-2 E295 vs CSA G40.21 400A is a 76.5% match. As per mechanical properties, the match is 15%. Combined, this makes them a minimal match overall at 35%.
