Yousef Steel, a reputable steel manufacturer and supplier located in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, proudly offers top-notch **ASTM A242 Type 2 Corten steel sheets and plates**. These products are crafted for outstanding performance in **outdoor structural and atmospheric conditions**. Renowned for their **weathering resistance** and extended service life, these plates are perfect for applications that demand both durability and minimal maintenance in exposed settings.
**ASTM A242 Type 2** is a **high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) weathering steel** specifically engineered to withstand atmospheric corrosion without the need for painting or coating. The alloying elements—mainly **copper, chromium, and nickel**—enable the surface to develop a stable, protective oxide layer (patina) that significantly slows down future corrosion, providing superior protection compared to regular carbon steels.
