A242 type 1 weathering steel is used to manufacture structural parts such as containers for containers containing hydrogen sulfide corrosion in containers, railway vehicles, oil derricks, seaport buildings, oil production platforms and chemical petroleum equipment. A242 type 1 steel plate is widely used in the welding and manufacturing of various transportation vehicles, construction machinery, towers and structural parts.
A242 type 1 weathering steel is generally used in the process of furnace-smelting (converter, electric furnace-micro alloying treatment-argon-LF refining-low superheat continuous casting (feeding rare earth wire)-controlled rolling and cooling). During smelting, A242 type 1 scrap steel is added into the furnace along with the charge, smelted according to the conventional process, and deoxidizer and alloy are added after tapping. After the molten steel is treated by argon blowing, it is then cast, and the molten steel after argon temperature adjustment is passed through the continuous casting machine by casting slab. Due to the addition of rare earth elements in A242 type 1 steel, A242 type 1 weathering steel is purified and the inclusion content is greatly reduced.
