        The product details say "resists rust", but elsewhere it states "should be painted to prevent rusting". So which is it? I plan to use this as a heat shield inside my BBQ's drip pan, so I don't want to pain it because I will have to scrape oil and food cru

        Answer This Question

        Thank you for reaching out. This item does resist rust, but that does not mean it will never rust. If the item is exposed to the elements for a long period of time or submerged under water, it will be more perceptible to rust. We recommend coating the sheet to lessen the chances of rust happening in these conditions. For the high heat of a bbq pit, powder coat or a high temperature paint may be best suited as a coating for this item. Thanks

                With the thickness in mind, would a laser cutter manage to cut through it? (Mainly industrial cutters, like the Universal VLS 6.60)

                Answer This Question

                Thank you for reaching out. This item has not been tested with a laser cutter. For confirmation we would recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of the laser cutter for the capabilities of the cutter. Thanks

                  Made a rain cap for a chiminea with this material. Easy to cut and shape. Held up well with the welding. Coated with high temp paint. Sheet metal already showing signs of rust in spite of the paint. Happened after the first rain.

                  The 12 in. x 24 in. 22-Gauge Weldable Sheet was just the perfect size to make a magnetic key holder. As the family continues to grow so does the fleet of vehicles. So I made a new key holder and framed it in hickory to make room for all of the keys. From old to new.

                  The bottom of my fire pit rusted out and I bought this to use as a bottom, works great. I know it's not the best but it works and fixed my issue. Now I can enjoy using my pit again.

                  For patch work in automobile restorations.
                  It welds really well outside in the cold temps. Curing time is sooner to continue the job.

                    This piece of steel was clean and straight. Just over priced.

                    The material is 16 Gauge or 1/16" thick and is quite stiff. This was ideal for my fabrication of 'U' shape piece channel brackets to adapt a radiator to a different vehicle using a shear to cut and a break to form. I also used it to fabricate (4) flat brackets attaching an electric fan to the same radiator. It was perfect for my needs.

                    A great piece of steel that fulfilled its purpose.
                    This was purchased as an integral part of my daughter's science project which studied the effect of pH on the corrosion of steel. It corroded better than we could have hoped for in the time that was allotted.
