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
