ASTM A242 Type1 steel Description:The main alloying elements of ASTM A242 Type1 steel are chromium nickel and copper with added phosphorous which gives it excellent self protecting qualities. As the steel reacts with elements in the atmosphere, the material forms a layer of rust over time which in essence protects the steel from corrosion.
ASTM A242 Type1 steel Application:ASTM A242 Type1 steel is mainly used for container steel. Moreover, it has a wide range of applications: architecture, smokestacks, fabrication,freight wagons, silos, pylons and bridges. A242 Type1 steel alloying with copper and chromium ensure the formation of a firmly adhering protective layer of rust which concurrently makes for an attractive appearance.
