Why people tend to choose stainless steel material

There are many products made of stainless steel in our daily life due to its many advantages, such as durability, corrosion resistance and high hardness. It has a wide range of applications, mainly used in heavy industry, light industry, household goods industry and building decoration and other industries. This article will take stock of the advantages of stainless steel and some of the common types, and provide a brief analysis of stainless steel materials.

Advantages of stainless steel

The physical properties of stainless steel are very superior. In terms of physical properties, stainless steel is heat resistant, high temperature resistant, also low temperature resistant and even ultra-low temperature resistant. In terms of chemical properties, stainless steel chemical corrosion resistance and electrochemical corrosion performance in the steel is the best, second only to titanium alloy. With the continuous development of the national economy, the application of stainless steel coils is becoming more and more widespread. Whether it is durability or aesthetics, stainless steel has excellent performance.

What is the difference between 304 stainless steel and 316 stainless steel?

Different prices

Due to the addition of molybdenum and nickel in 316, 316 stainless steel is more expensive than 304 stainless steel.

Different maintenance methods

304 has better corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance and workability than 316 stainless steel. This is because some 316 stainless steel products are made with 10% nickel to make the stainless steel more durable and resistant to corrosion.

304 and 316 is the code name for stainless steel, essentially they are no difference is stainless steel, but the types of stainless steel by a lot, different kinds of stainless steel has different application scenarios. Generally speaking, 304 stainless steel is widely used for curtain walls, sidewalls, roofing and other architectural applications, but in highly aggressive industrial or marine atmospheres, 316 stainless steel is preferable.

How to select stainless steel?

The conditions of use of stainless steel components, including corrosive media composition, temperature, pressure, state of stress, life expectancy, etc., is a prerequisite for the selection of applicable stainless steel. Adequate understanding of the conditions of use of the components is the primary condition necessary for the rational selection of stainless steel. We recommend that you have a comprehensive understanding of the properties of stainless steel, the environmental factors limiting its use, and the ease of purchase before purchasing stainless steel, so that you can make a targeted choice.
