Weathering (Corten A) hot‑rolled steel plate engineered for long-term atmospheric exposure where both corrosion resistance and an attractive oxidised finish are required. The material contains added phosphorus and other alloying elements that promote the formation of a stable, protective rust layer that reduces the need for painting and long‑term maintenance.
Key features
- Designed for atmospheric corrosion resistance and aesthetic patination
- Suitable for forming, welding and heavy fabrication when using appropriate procedures
- Available surface/supply conditions: As‑rolled, Normalized rolling, Simulated Post‑Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) or custom treatments per customer specification
- Typical advantages: durability, toughness, uniform construction and good structural strength
Typical applications
- Architectural façades, cladding and landscaping elements
- Bridges, towers and structural components exposed to weather
- Industrial stacks, gas flues and outdoor installations where a weathered finish is acceptable or desired
- Sculptures and decorative metalwork
