From the heart of Hamilton’s industrial landscape, Latham Steel proudly supplies New Zealand’s vital sectors with the exceptional strength of ARCELOR 500 Sheet and Plates. As a trusted local manufacturer and distributor, we understand the demands of building a resilient nation. This high-strength steel is a cornerstone for projects where durability and safety are paramount, and we are committed to providing our clients with material that not only meets but exceeds the rigorous standards required for modern engineering and construction challenges.
At its core, ARCELOR 500 is a quenched and tempered structural steel, a composition that gives it remarkable toughness. Its defining characteristic is a minimum yield strength of 500 MPa, meaning it can withstand immense force before it begins to deform. This high strength is complemented by excellent impact resistance, even in challenging conditions, ensuring it performs reliably under stress. This powerful combination of properties makes it far superior to conventional steels, offering a robust solution for the most demanding structural applications.
