Weather resistant steel
WEATHER RESISTANT STEEL
Designed to perform in harsh outdoor environments, our Weather Resistant Steel develops a natural protective patina that shields the material from corrosion and atmospheric damage. This unique property eliminates the need for painting while delivering long-term durability and a distinctive architectural appearance.
| Grade | Specifications | Typical Applications & Best For... |
|---|---|---|
| CORTEN A | A specialized high-phosphorus weathering steel developed for structural applications. | Sculptures, chimneys, and architectural features where the patina is a primary design element. Better for atmosphere corrosion. |
| CORTEN B | A lower-phosphorus version focusing on enhanced mechanical properties. | Heavy structures, bridges, and rail cars requiring higher toughness and weldability. |
| A588 | A standard high-strength, low-alloy weathering steel specification. | General construction, highway bridges, and poles, offering a balance of strength and corrosion resistance. |
| S355JOWP | A European standard (EN 10025-5) grade known for its improved atmospheric corrosion resistance. | Cladding, facades, and exposed structures, providing reliability and consistent patina formation. |
