Weathering steel originated in North America. It is a kind of material that can resist atmospheric corrosion, between stainless steel and ordinary steel, belonging to the low alloy steel series. At present, this kind of steel is widely used, and it is widely used in railway carriages, bridges, containers, decoration design and other industries. It is very popular with users. So why is weathering steel so popular? Now let's give you a detailed introduction.
1. Good corrosion resistance. Due to the addition of corrosion resistant elements, the corrosion resistance of weathering steel is very good. It can withstand the corrosion of acid, alkali, salt and sea water, and it is also resistant to rust. Many tests show that its internal surface is smooth and will not rust. At the same time, it has a long service life. It is a new type of steel that is energy-saving and convenient for construction;
2. Good wear resistance. The hardness of this steel is relatively high, so its wear resistance is very good, which is one of the reasons why it is widely used in mining and power industry; At the same time, it is light, one third of the same type of steel; In addition, it has good impact resistance and can be connected in many ways, such as flanges, welding and flexible joints.
3. Good weather resistance. The weather resistance of this kind of steel is two to eight times that of ordinary carbon steel. The working temperature range is very wide. It can be used normally for a long time in the temperature range of - 50 ℃ to 960 ℃, which also shows that its thermal stability is very good.
The question why weathering steel is popular is introduced above. This type of steel has many advantages, not only good weather resistance, but also corrosion resistance and wear resistance; In the field of decoration, it is usually used for the interface decoration of indoor and outdoor spaces, as well as outdoor steel structures and building decoration components. The effect is very good. If you need this kind of steel, you can consult Huamao International Steel Company.
