What is stainless<\/strong>?<\/h3>\n

Stainless steel or stainless steel<\/span> is an alloy where the main component is iron and chromium at least 10.5% by weight and must contain less than 1.2% carbon. Adding other types of substances such as nickel, manganese, copper, molybdenum, aluminum, etc. to enhance the properties of stainless steel to suit various applications. The main properties of stainless steel are: No rust, moisture resistant, corrosion resistant.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

stainless steel can improve corrosion resistance properties and other desired properties can be increased by adding A mixture of chromium and adding other elements such as molybdenum, nickel and nitrogen into stainless steel, there are more than 60 types.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With unique properties such as difficult to rust compared to metal. or other types of materials, low maintenance costs easy to weld and forming The duration of use is worth the price. and can be completely reused thus making stainless It is a precious metal, its properties and uses are limitless.<\/p>\n

    Magnet doesn’t suck In addition to the composition of 18% chromium, nickel is also added to enhance corrosion resistance. The austenitic type is the most widely used. among stainless steel Austenitics with a high content of 20%-25% chromium and 1-20% nickel are resistant to oxidation at high temperatures. which is used in furnace components heat pipe And the heat shield in the engine is called stainless steel.

          magnet It has a mixed structure between ferrite and austenite. It contains approximately 18-28% chromium and 4.5-8% nickel. This steel is often used in high chlorine applications to prevent corrosion. Pitting corrosion and increasing corrosion resistance. The cracks due to pressure (Stress corrosion cracking resistance) crystallized hardened steel. (Precipitation Hardening Steel) contains 17% chromium and nickel, copper and niobium alloys. Because this type of steel can be hardened in one go. It is therefore suitable for axes, pumps, valve heads and aerospace components. The most commonly used stainless steels are austenitic and ferritic, which account for 95% of stainless steel. currently in use<\/p>\n

          BA (No.2BA)<\/strong><\/td>\nSmooth surface, silver color and more gloss, reflects 50-55% of light (not as shiny as Mirror surface), similar to the production of 2B surface, but goes through a polishing process with a polishing roller last. This BA surface is best achieved with a Mill finish, after which it is subjected to a Polish finish to make the stainless steel sheet.
