Product Overview
SPA-H and SPA-C are Japanese standard weathering steel grades manufactured according to JIS G3125. They are widely used in shipping containers, transportation equipment, railway vehicles and outdoor structural parts where atmospheric corrosion resistance and good formability are required.
SPA-H is the most common grade for shipping containers. It contains copper and chromium, which improve atmospheric corrosion resistance by promoting a stable protective rust layer. SPA-H has good strength, ductility and bending performance, making it suitable for container corner posts, frame members and other structural parts that require forming and welding.
SPA-C is a higher-strength Japanese weathering steel with better mechanical properties than SPA-H. It is suitable for more demanding structural applications, including railway vehicles, heavy transportation equipment and outdoor industrial structures where higher strength and corrosion resistance are needed.
Both grades are designed for use in uncoated or lightly coated conditions. Under normal atmospheric exposure, they form a dense and stable rust patina that reduces further corrosion. We can supply SPA-H and SPA-C plates in various thicknesses and support cutting, bending, welding and fabrication according to customer drawings.
