The description ‘structural steel’ usually applies to a ductile cold-forming steel with yield strengths from around 350 MPa up to 1300 MPa. Steels with higher yield strengths – typically starting at around 600 MPa – are often called advanced high-strength steel (AHSS).
Metal coated products are made for applications that must withstand various corrosive environment, wherein they extend the service life of the end product by protecting the steel from corrosion.
Nordic quality steel for harsh weather and greener living
Premium chromium carbide overlays (CCO) work hard against wear.
Tool steel is the workhorse of the industrialized world. This highly versatile steel has a relatively low carbon content, usually between 0.7% and 1.5%.
Armor steel is a high-strength low-alloyed structural steel which has been processed to give high penetration resistance and blast protection. The steel’s properties are reached by quenching and tempering to reach the desired balance between hardness and toughness.
Weathering steel definition: steels that are chemically formulated to develop a protective patina layer – rust-like in appearance – that eliminates the need for paint. The dense oxide patina layer of weathered steel seals it off from the atmosphere. If a weathered steel panel is scratched, its patina will self-heal. The weathered steel is only not protected against further corrosion: it also delivers a unique finish that is an aesthetically pleasing – a warm, dark-brown, textured appearance that needs low or no maintenance.
