Indaten® HC315WP
Indaten® HC315WP introduction
Indaten® HC315WP cold rolled steel offers improved resistance to atmospheric corrosion and is a thin gauge version of the hot rolled steel defined in the EN 10025-5:2004 standard (S355J0WP). It is a fine-grain, high-strength structural steel that has been optimised to give improved processing and in-service performance.
When used uncoated and exposed to weather conditions, an oxide layer develops on the steel surface, forming a purplish-brown, finely grained patina that bonds very strongly to the steel and protects it. With its characteristic colour, Indaten® HC315WP steel is used in architectural projects either to harmonise with the environment or to create a pleasing contrast with other materials, such as stainless steel. If the patina is damaged, the steel re-oxidises, thus repairing the patina and maintaining the protective barrier.
Indaten® HC315WP can also be coated (paint, metallic coatings etc). In the case of coated parts, the protective layer prevents rust propagation under the paint layer.
Experience has shown that the adhesion of paint on Indaten® HC315WP is superior to bonding on other carbon steel grades.
