Weather resistant steel plate is corrosion-resistant but not rust-proof. Weather ;resistant steel plate is widely used in landscaping and other outdoor applications because it forms a protective layer of rust after being exposed to moisture and oxygen about six months. Since the rust layer can protect the steel from further corrosion, there is no need for painting or additional weatherproof treatment.
It should be noted that in order to form this protective layer, weather resistant steel plate needs to be exposed to wet and dry cycles. If weather resistant steel plate ;is immersed in water or buried in damp ground, no protective rust layer will be formed. Areas exposed to the marine environment or close to the ocean may also prevent the protective layer from forming in time to protect the steel.
The natural corrosion resistance of weather resistant steel plate makes it have a long life cycle, creating a low-maintenance solution for various uses. Weather resistant steel plate has high strength characteristics, which is why sheet metal is used in structural applications, including bridges, building exterior walls and other large structures. Other industrial applications of weather resistant steel plate include rail cars, industrial transportation and storage containers, and other transportation uses.
Due to its corrosion resistance, weather resistant steel plates ;are also widely used by architects and artists. The reason why artists and sculptors prefer weather-resistant steel plates is that the color of the protective rust layer continues to deepen as the environment changes, and it has a very good visual expressiveness.
