From the heart of Amman, Jordan, Yazan Steel stands as a trusted source for high-strength, weathering steel. We specialize in supplying ASTM A588 GR.AB Corten steel sheet and plate, a material chosen for its exceptional durability and distinctive, self-protecting rust patina. Our commitment is to provide clients across the region with a product that not only meets rigorous international standards but also offers a long-term, cost-effective solution for demanding structural projects, blending superior performance with a unique aesthetic character.
This grade of steel is defined by a specific composition that includes elements like copper, chromium, and nickel, which work together to form its protective patina. Mechanically, it offers a high minimum yield strength of 50 ksi (345 MPa), providing excellent load-bearing capacity. The real advantage, however, is its atmospheric corrosion resistance, which is approximately four times greater than that of conventional carbon steel, significantly reducing maintenance needs over the structure’s lifespan.

The unique properties of A588 GR.AB Corten make it ideal for building bridges, architectural facades, and exposed structural frameworks where its weathering characteristic is a design feature. It is also widely used for constructing transmission towers, heavy-duty equipment, and shipping containers. Essentially, any application exposed to the elements benefits from this steel, as its stable rust layer acts as a shield, eliminating the need for constant painting and upkeep while ensuring structural integrity for decades.
