How Corten steel is made Corten steel, often referred to as weathered steel, is made from high quality steel with a special alloy that encourages surface rust. That rust does not damage the product in any way, but instead protects it from the elements. Corten steel comes from ‘cor’ –rosion resistance and ‘ten’ -sile strength inherent in steel. The coating on the steel ages over time and exposure to the elements. It takes around a year to fully develop and will produce runoff when you first install it. This runoff can stain so be mindful of where you install the Corten steel edging. Once the Corten steel has been outside for a few months, that runoff should stop and you should have a beautiful rust-coloured border. Common uses for Corten steel Corten steel is an innovative product often used in architecture and sculpture. Think Angel of the North and you’re on the right track. We stock a range of Corten products for the garden, including firepits, raised border boxes, stairs, storage options, tables and a range of other products. It is also used in building, industry, landscaping and art. The aforementioned Angel of the North or the new Look II Statue in Plymouth created by Sir Antony Gormley are two examples of this material being used. What our customers say about us: Benefits of Corten steel Corten steel has many benefits, including:
  • Very hard wearing
  • Weather-resistant thanks to that red layer of rust
  • Architectural and beautiful
  • Readily available
  • Comes in all shapes, sizes and configurations
Corten steel random facts Corten steel is a special combination of steel and alloy. That alloy adds an exterior coating to the material that rusts when exposed to the elements. That rust takes a while to develop and will stop once the tiny pores in the steel become full of rust. The end product is weather-resistant and has a much longer lifespan than bare rolled steel.

  2. As your Corten Steel planter begins to weather, the oily residue will break down.
  3. Your product will begin to change colour, during this stage – the ‘run-off’ may stain stone or concrete surfaces that it comes into contact with.

The Corten Steel Letter Box by Adezz (or weathering steel) is an alloy that naturally forms a rust coating the over the first 9 months or so of it being exposed to the weather. Interestingly, due to the composition of this special alloy, this rust coating forms a protective layer they prevents further rusting. The steel underneath remains unimpaired as the outer layer continues to protect and regenerate as it exposed to water and oxygen.

About 4mm corten steel

Corten steel is a type of high-strength, low alloy carbon steel that gains its characteristic orange-brown hue through a natural weathering process that develops over the course of 3-10 months. As the steel is exposed to the elements, it forms a protective oxidised layer that shields the underlying metal from further corrosion. This process not only gives Corten its distinct look but also makes it exceptionally weather-resistant. Weathering steel is made from a blend of nickel, copper, and chromium. These elements combine to form a stable patina, which protects the steel from rust and damage, even in challenging outdoor conditions. Unlike traditional steel, Corten steel doesn’t require painting, coatings, or treatments to maintain its resilience, making 4mm Corten steel sheets a popular low-maintenance option for various projects.

Key properties of 4mm Corten steel sheets:

  • Formability: Good
  • Weldability: Good
  • Machinability: Excellent
  • Corrosion Resistance: Fair (improved by the patina)
Please note that your 4mm Corten steel sheet will arrive in its raw, grey state and will begin to develop its signature rust-like appearance after exposure to outdoor conditions. For those looking for a pre-rusted finish, we also offer pre-weathered Corten steel sheets.

The 4mm Corten steel sheet offers a range of benefits that make it suitable for all sorts of projects:
  • Striking Appearance: The natural patina provides a unique look that adds character to any design.
  • Weatherproof: The oxidised layer that develops helps to protect against further corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor use.
