Scratched Charcoal Steel PBR Metal Material

This seamless 2K PBR metal material features a weathered charcoal steel surface with fine surface scratches and subtle tonal variations. This PBR material captures the nuanced aesthetic of aged, industrial steel. The surface exhibits a dark charcoal tone with a complex, mottled finish that mimics natural oxidation and wear. Fine, random scratches are distributed across the material, providing realistic depth and surface character when light interacts with the metallic base. The texture is designed to be fully tileable, ensuring that large-scale applications remain consistent and free of visible seams or repeating artifacts. It provides a sophisticated, rugged look suitable for high-end industrial design or contemporary architectural accents requiring authentic, durable metal detailing.

The download is a 17.4 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal, roughness, metalness and displacement maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.

To integrate this material into your workflow, load the included albedo, normal, displacement, roughness, and metalness maps into your render engine's shader node editor. The 2K resolution provides a balanced fidelity for mid-to-close range shots. Adjust the displacement map intensity to suit the desired level of surface relief and calibrate the roughness map to control the specular highlights, ensuring the material reacts accurately to your scene's lighting environment and HDRI setups.
