Travis Steel, located in Canberra, Australia, is a reliable manufacturer and supplier of ASTM A242 Type 1 Corten Steel Sheets and Plates, celebrated for their outstanding weathering properties and durability. The company is dedicated to providing products that adhere to international standards, ensuring high strength, corrosion resistance, and visual appeal. When exposed to the elements, ASTM A242 Type 1 Corten Steel forms a protective rust-like layer, which means no painting is necessary and it boosts longevity. Travis Steel guarantees precise fabrication, dependable supply, and consistent quality for structural, architectural, and industrial projects of all kinds.
These ASTM A242 Type 1 Corten Steel Sheets and Plates are mainly made up of copper, chromium, nickel, and phosphorus, which help create a stable oxide layer that guards against corrosion. They boast impressive tensile strength, ranging from 480 to 620 MPa, with a minimum yield strength of about 345 MPa. The alloying elements improve weather resistance, toughness, and weldability. This steel is built to last, even in outdoor settings, making it ideal for structural uses where low maintenance and a naturally weathered look are preferred.
