This mild steel box section with square dimensions and a thicker wall (2mm) provides increased strength and structural integrity compared to thinner-walled sections. It offers excellent weldability and machinability, making it versatile for various construction and fabrication purposes. However, like other mild steel components, it may require protection against corrosion depending on the operating environment.
-
Material: Mild Steel - This type of steel is commonly used in construction and manufacturing due to its strength and cost-effectiveness.
-
Formability: Poor - Mild steel, while strong, may be less malleable or easily shaped compared to some other materials.
-
Weldability: Excellent - Mild steel is known for its excellent weldability, making it suitable for various fabrication and construction applications.
-
Machinability: Excellent - The mild steel box section is easy to machine, allowing for precise cutting, drilling, and shaping as needed.
-
Shape: Box Section - The cross-sectional shape of this steel component is square, providing structural support in a variety of applications.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Poor - Mild steel is susceptible to corrosion over time, especially in harsh environmental conditions. Additional protective measures may be needed to prevent corrosion.
-
Finish: Mill Finish - The box section has a mill finish, indicating that it has not undergone additional surface treatment. It retains the appearance resulting from the manufacturing process.
-
Weight/Metre (Kg): 2.29 - This figure represents the weight of one meter length of the box section, which is 2.29 kilograms.
