ASTM A588 Weathering Steel Plates

• High-strength, low-alloy weathering (Corten) steel plates manufactured to ASTM A588/A588M requirements. Engineered for improved atmospheric corrosion resistance, these plates develop a stable, adherent rust patina that reduces the need for paint and lowers long‑term maintenance costs.

• Key features

  • Weathering-resistant chemistry for outdoor structures exposed to the atmosphere
  • High tensile and yield strength relative to conventional carbon steels
  • Supplied in multiple A588 grades (A/B/C and other commonly requested variants)
  • Material Test Certificates (MTC) available on request

• Available dimensions and supply options

  • Thickness: up to 260 mm
  • Width: 1,000 mm to 4,000 mm
  • Length: 1,000 mm to 18,000 mm
  • Minimum order quantity: 5 pieces
  • Stock: ready stock for prompt shipment; production lead time 10–40 days when out of stock
  • Delivery: bulk/industrial packaging suitable for sea or land transport

• Common industrial applications

  • Bridges, structural steelwork and building facades
  • Heavy equipment frames, containers and outdoor architectural elements
  • Transmission towers, signposts and other exposed infrastructure where reduced maintenance is required

• Commercial terms

  • Material Test Certificate (MTC) available with deliveries
  • Payment terms: T/T or Irrevocable L/C at sight
  • Typical lead time: immediate dispatch from stock or 10–40 days for production quantities
