WR 50 B steel description

 

WR 50 B steel is a weather resistant steel which could more accurately be termed as an "Atmospheric Corrosion Resistant Steel" and often referred to as Corten-B steel.

 

Weathering means that due to WR 50 B steel chemical compositions, WR 50 B steel chemical composition can increase resistance to atmospheric corrosion compared to unalloyed steels.

This is because it forms a protective layer on WR 50 B steel surface under the influence of the weather.
