COR-TEN® becomes PATINAX®

The weather-proof structural steel COR-TEN® will now be sold under the new ThyssenKrupp brand names PATINAX® 355P (formerly COR-TEN® A) and 355 (formerly COR-TEN® B)*. The name PATINAX® results from the corrosion-resistant cover layer which forms on the surface of these steels and was already used by Thyssen Niederrhein for this product in the second half of the last century.

Original name | Standard name | ThyssenKrupp brand
COR-TEN® A | S355J2WP | PATINAX® 355P
COR-TEN® B | S355J2W | PATINAX® 355
