Precautions for the use of weather resistant steel plate

Weather resistant steel plate refers to a low-alloy high-strength steel that has good corrosion resistance in the atmosphere by adding a small amount of alloying elements. The atmospheric corrosion resistance of weather resistant steel plate is 2-8 times that of ordinary carbon steel, and the longer the service time, the more prominent the corrosion resistance. In addition to good weather resistance, weather resistant steel plate also has excellent mechanics and welding properties, and is widely used in railway vehicles, bridges and containers.

When weather resistant steel plate is used, it can be painted, bare or stabilized. The requirements for coating are the same as those of ordinary carbon steel. It is particularly important to point out that weather resistant steel plate can be used without painting, which is the most prominent advantage of weather resistant steel plate. In areas without serious air pollution or particularly humid areas, weather resistant steel plate can be exposed directly to the atmosphere without coating. Generally, after years, the rust layer will gradually stabilize, corrosion will no longer develop, and the appearance will be beautiful chocolate color. Because this kind of steel structure has no paint aging and other problems, it does not require painting and maintenance, which greatly reduces the maintenance cost, and of course, it avoids the loss caused by the effect of painting on use.
