The alloy that its base is iron and it has less than 2% carbon,It has been called steel Depending on the type and amount of other elements in the mechanical properties such Characterized as toughness and ductility.Increased carbon content increases the hardness and strength, but it becomes much plasticity.

Carbon and Alloy Steels

steels are classified into two categories: Carbon and alloy,Carbon-carbon steels except some common elements (eg, silicon, manganese, sulfur and phosphorus) is another element . Iron alloys produced by adding some elements that have excellent properties . For example, the addition of chromium to iron, stainless steel or stainless steel can be achieved in various corrosion resistant.

What makes the stainless steel ?

When stainless steel it has at least 10.5% chromium.Chromium, chromium oxide is then combined with oxygen to form a layer on stainless steel,This layer can not be seen but makes the link between air and metal defunct steel and stay healthy.Greater amounts of chromium and other metals like nickel and molybdenum in the alloy layer to enhance the properties of stainless steel,increases the stainless steel .

What is the difference steel, 304, 316?

304 stainless steel contains 18% chromium and 8% nickel ,If you have a 16% Cr-10% Ni stainless steel 316 and 2% molybdenum.molybdenum is added to help resist corrosion in chloride (eg sea water).

Is stainless steel and are attracted to magnets?

300 series stainless steel with nickel are not attracted to magnets.If the 400 Series with nickel chrome Nbvdhvfqt they are attracted to magnets.

Letters after the name of stainless steel (eg, 316) is a sign?

The letter abbreviation that indicates that the value is less than 0.03% carbon alloy has decreased.The low carbon content makes the welding operation as a protective oxide layer on the surface to be.

Is it recyclable stainless steel?

Stainless steel is 100% recyclable.Steel scrap is melted and re-molded.Between 65 to 80 percent of the production of stainless steel scrap in place.

Is stainless steel can be very high or low working temperatures?

Yes Stainless steel is excellent resistance to high temperatures (1000 ° C) and very low (up to 200 ° C) .

Name steel (304 and 316, etc.) is done by whom?

Iron and Steel Association of America for the first time to the classification and nomenclature of the stainless steel.

What kind of steel ck45?

A medium carbon steel (about 0.45%) due to lower prices sometimes are used to build the pump Because of low chromium content is resistant to rust and corrosion.

What is duplex steel ?

It has Between 19 to 28% chromium steels up to 5% molybdenum and has very high resistance to corrosion.And the best option for building components exposed to corrosion from sea water.
