Corten A588 GrK steel is a weathering steel designed for excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties when exposed to atmospheric environments. This steel is a high-strength low-alloy steel, mainly composed of iron, carbon, silicon, manganese, and copper, and contains small amounts of phosphorus, sulfur, nickel, and chromium.
Corten A588 GrK Steel Features and Benefits:
Weather resistance: Corten A588 GrK steel has high weather resistance and can resist atmospheric corrosion, which is suitable for structural components in outdoor exposed environments.
Mechanical properties: The steel has high tensile strength and yield strength at room temperature, and has good elongation properties.
Widely used: Often used in Bridges, large containers, chimneys, and other structures, especially in environments requiring high weather resistance.
Order and packaging:
Minimum order size: Usually 1 ton or more, depending on the requirements of the supplier.
Packaging: Waterproof plastic packaging, bundling packaging, or bulk transport is generally used to ensure safety during transportation.
