What is Corten Steel?
Corten Steel is also known as weathering steel but it got its name due to its trademarked name COR-TEN steel which is owned by U.S Steel.
Corten steel was developed to eliminate the need for the steel to be painted to protect it from the environment. As a result, it has a rust-like appearance.
The name comes from the two district properties that the steel has in its corrosion resistance (COR) and its tensile strength (TEN).
During its manufacturing process, the steel is subjected to oxidation on the surface of the metal which in turn creates a protective film. The coating of the metal then produces the stunning rust orange effect.
It is also known as weathering because weathering is the result of atmospheric corrosion ie rust. The manufacturing process creates this weathering effect as a way to protect it.
Corten steel is used in a variety of outdoor buildings and structures along with heating and decorative objects such as chimineas.
