What's the benefits of stainless steel
What's the benefits of stainless steel ?
Corrosion resistance
Lower alloyed grades resist corrosion in atmospheric and pure water enviroments. while high-alloyed grades can resist corrosion in most acids, alkaline solutions and chlorine bearing environments, properties which are utilized in process plants.
Fire and heat resistance
Special high chromium and nickel-alloyed grades resist scaling and retain strength at high temperatures.
Hydiene
The easy cleaning ability of stainless makes it the first choice for strict hygiene conditions, such as
hospitals. kitchens, abattoirs and other food processing plants.
Aesthetic apperance
The bright , easily maintained surface of stainless steel provides a modern and attractive apperance
Strength-to-weight advantage
The work-hardening property of austenitic grades. that results in a significant strengthening of the material from cold-working alone and the high strength duplex grades, allow reduced material thickness over conventional grades, therefore cost savings.
Ease of fabrication
Modern steel-making techniques mean that stainless can be cut, welded, formed, machined, and fabricated as readily as traditional steels.
Impact resistance
The austenitic microstructure of the 300 series provides high toughness from elevated temperatures to far below freezing, making these steel particularly suted to cryogenic applications.
Long term value
When the total life cycle costs are considered, stainless is often the least expensive material option.
Sustainability
Stainless steel is one of the most sustainable material choices avalable to decision makers.
