weathering steel plate applications

Weathering steel is a special steel grade between stainless steel and plain carbon steel. Its characteristics are that it has better atmospheric corrosion resistance and paintability than ordinary carbon steel, and the price is more economical and applicable than stainless steel. 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 ordinary carbon steel with a small amount of corrosion-resistant elements such as copper and nickel added.

Weathering steel is mainly used for steel structures that are exposed to the atmosphere for a long time, such as railways, vehicles, bridges, towers, photovoltaics, and high-speed projects. It is used to manufacture structural parts such as containers, railway vehicles, oil derricks, seaport buildings, oil production platforms and containers containing hydrogen sulfide corrosive medium in chemical and petroleum equipment.

Weathering boards are widely used in many engineering, mining, cement, electric power, construction, machinery, coal, glass manufacturing, papermaking, metallurgy, petrochemical and other industries.
