What is made of stainless steel

Characteristics of steel alloys

As you know, stainless steel has ferritic, austenitic and martensitic compositions. Austenitic steel is the most widely used. The volume of its application is 70% of all types of steel. It does not corrode and melts at very high temperatures. The scope of its application is very wide. Austenitic stainless steel contains 6 to 14% Ni, 16 to 25% Cr and 2 to 6% Mo. It may also contain impurities of other elements. Chromium or ferritic steel contains less carbon. It is less resistant to corrosion and has a lower price than austenitic steel. It contains from 12 to 20% Cr. A number of grades use Ti and Mo. Martensitic stainless steel has the lowest quality, but it is hardened by heat treatment.

Applications

Stainless steel is used to make tubes of various profiles. They can be round as well as square, oval, etc. Surface finishes include matt and mirror finishes. Stainless pipes are widely used in the construction of various communications and in design. They are used to make frameworks, stairs, barriers, parapets supports, etc . Rolled metal products such as hexahedrons, squares, angles, wires and strips are widely used in mechanical engineering and instrumentation. Angles and stainless steel circles are the most widely used. Flat rolled steel is produced in sheets and coils. It can be drawn, hot- and cold-rolled, ground, polished and brushed. Stainless steel sheets are used for roofing, for cladding of buildings, interior design and in everyday life. Stainless steel is also made and taps - specially bent pipe that is used in the installation of pipelines, especially in the food and chemical industries.
