Weathering steel, that is, atmospheric corrosion-resistant steel, is a low-alloy steel series between ordinary steel and stainless steel. Weathering steel is made of plain carbon steel with a small amount of corrosion-resistant elements such as copper and nickel. It has the strength, toughness and plasticity of high-quality steel Extension, forming, welding and cutting, abrasion, high temperature, fatigue resistance and other characteristics; weather resistance is 2 to 8 times that of normal carbon steel, and paintability is 1.5 to 10 times that of normal carbon steel. At the same time, it has the characteristics of rust resistance, corrosion resistance and longevity of components, thinning and consumption reduction, and labor and energy saving.

1. Unique performance characteristics: First of all, it has outstanding visual performance. Corroded steel plates will change over time. Its color brightness and saturation are higher than those of ordinary construction materials, so it is easy to stand out under the background of garden green plants. In addition, the rough surface produced by the corrosion of the steel plate makes the structure more volume and quality.
2. It has a strong body shaping ability. Like other metal materials, corroded steel plates are easier to mold into rich and varied shapes, and can maintain excellent integrity, which is difficult to achieve with wood, stone, and concrete.
.3. It also has a distinct space defining ability. Due to the high strength and toughness of steel plate, it is not as much as the thickness limit of masonry material due to the structure. Therefore, very thin steel plates can be used to separate the space very clearly and accurately, making the site concise and lively, and full of power.
Product Application
1. Due to its unique rough appearance and antique-like rusty skin, weathering steel is widely used for artistic purposes such as carving and construction.
2. Weathering steel is not afraid of sun and rain, and it is very suitable for public art, outdoor sculpture and building exterior wall decoration in terms of sculpture.
3. Weathering steel is also used in buildings, constructions, bridges or other huge structures, and has anti-corrosion, structural support functions and artistic value.
4. In ocean transportation, weathering steel is used to make containers.
5. The alloying elements such as chromium and nickel used in weathering steel are less than stainless steel, and the price is usually cheaper than stainless steel. In some cases, weathering steel is a substitute for stainless steel that is both corrosion resistant and economical.
