A606 steel sheet develops a weathered orange-brown oxide that is resistant to corrosion, increasing its life and durability, when it is exposed to external conditions.
“weathering” ability, which provides A606 steel sheet with atmospheric corrosion resistance and ultimately longer life in applications. Moreover, A606 steel sheet is a high-strength low-Alloy steel plate used in structural applications such as bridges and buildings.
A606 steel sheet is a weathering steel which develops a natural rust patina which protects the steel from exposure. When properly exposed to the atmosphere, A606 steel sheet is suitable for many applications in the unpainted condition.
Mechanical Properties A606 steel sheet:
Tensile: 70 ksi min
Yield: 50 ksi min
Elongation: 22% min in 2”
ASTM A606 sheet, a High Strength Low Alloy (HSLA) steel plate, is 20-30% lighter than carbon steel and exhibits up to four times the atmospheric corrosion resistance of common structural carbon steel.
A606 steel sheet is a trade name associated with A606. This group of steel alloys under the name of Corten is also known as weathering steel due to its rust-like appearance when exposed to weathering over time.
Applications for ASTM A606 sheet:
Bridges
Freight cars
Housings that require durability
Telecommunications and transmission towers
