30mm x 30mm x 2mm Galvanised Mild Steel Box Section, Corrosion-Resistant, Ideal for Construction, Poor Formability & Weldability Linear Metre

This galvanized mild steel box section is suitable for applications where corrosion resistance is crucial, such as outdoor construction or environments with exposure to moisture. However, it's important to note that galvanized steel may have reduced formability, weldability, and machinability compared to untreated mild steel. Special care and considerations are needed when working with galvanized steel, especially in welding applications.

1. Material: Mild Steel - This type of steel is commonly used in construction and manufacturing due to its strength and cost-effectiveness.

2. Formability: Poor - Mild steel, even when galvanized, may have reduced formability compared to some other materials.

3. Weldability: Poor - The galvanization process can affect the weldability of the steel. Special considerations and techniques may be required for welding galvanized steel.

4. Machinability: Poor - Galvanized steel can be more challenging to machine due to the presence of the zinc coating.

5. Shape: Box Section - The cross-sectional shape of this steel component is square, providing structural support in a variety of applications.

6. Corrosion Resistance: Good - The galvanized coating improves the corrosion resistance of the mild steel, making it more resistant to rust and other forms of corrosion, especially in outdoor or corrosive environments.

7. Finish: Galvanised - The box section has a galvanized finish, indicating that it has undergone the galvanization process to provide enhanced corrosion resistance.

8. Weight/Metre (Kg): 1.77 - This figure represents the weight of one meter length of the galvanized box section, which is 1.77 kilograms.
