There are also different finishes to the plates such as the ASTM A588 Grade B Perforated Sheet and polished sheets. There are grades A and B in the corten sheets and plates depending on the composition and characteristics. The specialty of the Corten Steel Sheets is that the material forms an oxide layer on the surface that prohibits further oxidation. This oxide layer is also known as the patina.
Tensile Strength | Min. Yield Point | Elongation | |
---|---|---|---|
COR-TEN A | [470 – 630 MPa] | [355 MPa] | 20 % min |
ASTM 588 GR. A | [485 MPa] | [345 MPa] | 21% min |
ASTM 242 TYPE -1 | [480 MPa] | [345 MPa] | 16% min |
The patina formation is the identifying property of the weathering steels. The Corten Steel Coil can be used in high oxidizing application with high temperatures as well. The material composition can have copper, chromium, vanadium, carbon, silicon, sulfur, manganese, phosphorus and nickel in it. The mechanical properties of the Corten Steel Strips and plates make them applicable in various industrial, commercial and domestic applications. The minimum yield strength of the plates is 345MPa and the minimum tensile strength is 485MPa.
The S355j0w Corten Hot Rolled Plates are used in buildings, tanks, marine transportation, corten facades and in outdoor sculptures. The sheets range in thickness from 0.3mm to 500mm and in lengths for 2m to 12m. Please contact us to know more about the ASME SA 588 Gr A Shim Sheets and other types with the prices.
