1. Product Characteristics

This steel is an alloy steel with strong corrosion resistant elements such as copper, chrome, phosphorous, and nickel, which raise its corrosion resistance 4 to 8 times that of general steel.  Unlike general steel, the rust formed on corrosion resistant steel turns dark brown after some time, resulting in beautiful exterior that does not need painting since the rust does not flake off.  This steel can be used in bridges and for building exterior finish.
