Galvanised Mild Steel Angle Iron Heavy Duty, Corrosion Resistant Structural Steel Poor Formability Weldability Machinability Linear Metre

This galvanised angle iron, with specific dimensions and grade (S275JR), is suitable for applications where corrosion resistance is a critical factor, such as outdoor construction or structures exposed to environmental elements. The galvanised finish adds a protective layer, enhancing its durability in corrosive conditions. However, the poor formability, weldability, and machinability should be considered in the context of the specific fabrication processes and requirements.

• Material: The angle iron is made of mild steel, specifically using the grade S275JR. S275JR is a common structural steel grade known for its good strength and mechanical properties.

• Formability: The formability of this angle iron is described as poor, indicating that it may be less malleable or less easily shaped compared to materials with better formability. 

• Weldability: The weldability is described as poor. While mild steel is generally weldable, the galvanization process can affect weldability. Galvanization involves coating the steel with a layer of zinc, and welding through this coating can be challenging.

• Machinability: The machinability is described as poor, suggesting that this angle iron is less easily machined compared to materials with better machinability. 

• Shape: The shape of this component is described as an angle, reflecting the characteristic L-shape commonly associated with angle irons.

• Corrosion Resistance: The corrosion resistance is described as good. The galvanised finish indicates that the steel has been coated with a layer of zinc, providing protection against corrosion. This makes it suitable for use in outdoor or corrosive environments.

• Finish: The finish is specified as "Galvanised," indicating that the surface has undergone a galvanization process. This finish provides an additional layer of protection against corrosion.

• Grade: The grade of the mild steel used is S275JR, indicating a structural steel with good strength properties.

• Dimensions:

  • Height: The height of the angle iron is 75mm.
  • Thickness: The thickness of the angle iron is 6mm.
  • Width: The width of the angle iron is 75mm.

• Weight/Metre (Kg): The weight of one meter of this galvanised angle iron is 6.9 kilograms, indicating its density and providing insights into considerations for handling and installation
