The steel oxidises with pollutants in the air forming a thick layer of rust – this formation acts as a protective layer which prevents the steel from corroding. The layer constantly regenerates and forms over time.

A588 grA steel is therefore classed as being a 'self–protecting' steel. In normal use the material does not need painting or other external treatment any kind.

Weather resistant steel can be used in a wide range of structural applications. A588 grA steel is a commonly used product in bridge construction because of the lack of maintenance costs. It is also popular in modern architecture where the aesthetically pleasing finish is in great demand for sculptural buildings and fascias.
