MS Flat Bar

“FLAT” in steel refers to the thin layer of oxidation or corrosion that forms on the surface of the metal over time. It is a natural and typically desirable process that occurs when steel is exposed to air, moisture, and certain atmospheric conditions. The flat layer acts as a protective barrier, preventing further corrosion and giving the steel a unique and aesthetically pleasing appearance.

The formation of Flat on steel is a gradual process and can vary in color, ranging from shades of brown to deep red or even blue-green. The specific hue of the Flat depends on various factors, including the composition of the steel, the surrounding environment, and the duration of exposure.

Many architects, designers, and artists appreciate the aesthetic appeal of Flat in steel and incorporate it into their projects deliberately. It adds character, depth, and a sense of history to the material. Flat can be particularly popular in architectural applications, sculptures, and outdoor installations.
