Typical Uses
This steel can be left unpainted making it ideal application including bridges, buildings, and other structures.


Products undergo various tests and inspections to confirm that they comply with customer and industry specifications from raw materials to finished products.


We need to pack the steel appropriately to avoid damage during transportation. Different packaging methods are suitable for different steel types and need to be selected according to the actual situation.
