COR-TEN® is a high-strength, low-alloy, weldable structural steel with excellent weathering resistance. It forms a dark brown protective oxide layer that seals the surface against further corrosion, and repairs itself if scratched or damaged.
- Develops its own protective film, slowing corrosion
- Saves the cost of initial painting and repainting
- Recommended where high strength is needed and maintenance is difficult
Available from 0.8mm to 40mm thick. 3mm to 40mm material is dual certified to S355J2W and COR-TEN.
Typical uses: rainscreen cladding, garden edging, planters, firepits, art and sculpture, as well as bridges, tanks and vehicle bodies.
