Piastra in Corten
Piastre in acciaio corten are available in grades such as Corten A, Corten B, and S355J0W/S355J2W, offerta alta resistenza, excellent corrosion resistance, and long-term durability.
They are widely used for:
-
Griglie per alberi, guardie, and urban landscaping accessories
-
Architectural facades and cladding
-
Ponti, passerelle, and structural components
-
Outdoor sculptures and industrial equipment
Corten plates combine functionality, aesthetics, and longevity, making them a preferred choice for modern outdoor and urban projects.

- Descrizione
Piastre in acciaio corten (weathering steel plates) are widely used in costruzione, paesaggio urbano, architettura, e applicazioni industriali due to their alta resistenza, resistenza alla corrosione, and natural patina. These plates develop a reddish-brown protective layer quando esposto a condizioni esterne, fornendo long-term durability with minimal maintenance.
Common Grades of Corten Plates
| Grado | Descrizione | Uso tipico |
|---|---|---|
| Corten A (ASTM A242 / IN 10025-5) | Standard weathering steel, moderate strength, forms patina quickly | Pedestrian sidewalks, small urban landscaping projects |
| Corten B (ASTM A588 / IN 10025-5) | Higher strength and better corrosion resistance | Large tree grates, structural elements, urban plazas |
| S355J0W / S355J2W | Acciaio resistente agli agenti atmosferici standard europeo | Architectural facades, rivestimento, and certified structural projects |
These grades are selected based on strength requirements, exposure conditions, and project scale.
Key Properties of Corten Plates
| Proprietà | Valore tipico | Beneficio |
|---|---|---|
| Resistenza alla trazione | 485 MPa | Suitable for structural applications and urban furniture |
| Forza di snervamento | 345 MPa | Ensures stability under load |
| Durezza | 120–150 HB | Surface durability for outdoor use |
| Resistenza alla corrosione | Eccellente | Forms stable protective patina naturally |
| Allungamento | ~20% | Allows bending and welding during fabrication |
Corten steel is autoprotettivo, meaning the rust patina layer prevents deeper corrosion, rendendolo ideale per outdoor and exposed environments.
Common Applications of Corten Plates
| Applicazione | Descrizione |
|---|---|
| Paesaggio urbano | Griglie per alberi, guardie degli alberi, garden steel products |
| Rivestimento architettonico | Facciate degli edifici, decorative wall panels, exterior features |
| Ponti e passerelle | Ponti pedonali, small load-bearing structures |
| Sculture all'aperto & Art Installations | Durable, aesthetically pleasing public artworks |
| Attrezzatura industriale | Outdoor storage tanks, silos, contenitori, and heavy-duty equipment |
Corten plates are particularly favored for urban and architectural projects Dove visual appeal and long-term outdoor performance sono critici.
