Stainless Steel Castings and Your Company

 

There are different types of metals that can be used in any metal work project whether it is for home or building construction, metal decorations and accents, fixture installation, or furniture making. The most commonly used metal is stainless steel. The 10.5% chromium produces a thin layer of oxide on the steel's for corrosion prevention. Stainless steel can withstand extremes of temperature, with great strength, and resistance to corrosion. The three main types of stainless steel include austenitic, martensitic, and ferritic with varying characteristics.

 

There are many applications of stainless steel such as oil, gas, and chemical industries for manufacturing pipes, pumps, tanks, and valves. Stainless steel is usually used to reinforce bars for construction and building projects, and used for automotive industry's exhaust system as it handles high temperature and it is resistant to corrosion. Stainless steel is an attractive material used for various applications, and it is cost-efficient, requires less maintenance, and longer service life for equipment. Ferritic stainless steels are not hardenable by heat treatment, magnetic, contain 10.5 % and 18%, with low carbon content, and have good formability, and durability. When it comes to martensitic stainless steels, they are made of  12% and 18% chromium, are magnetic, hardenable by tampering and quenching, and generally used in  aerospace, cutlery, and engineering. The most common type of stainless steel is austenitic stainless steel containing 8% nickel and 18%chromium, nonmagnetic, and super austenitic grades have enhanced crevice and pitting corrosion resistance. Duplex stainless steel has  excellent mechanical properties, and high resistance to corrosion because it contains  high chromium levels and moderate amounts of nickel. Lost wax technique is an effective and efficient method of producing high-quality stainless steel allowing composing your very own alloy. For superior quality steel castings, with low surface roughness values as well as precise tolerances, the best technique is lost wax casting, which is usually applied in environments where high quality is in demand. Lost wax technique virtually cast any steel alloy, complex shapes can be cast as one component, undercuts can be cast, suitable for larger and smaller series, and freedom in design and style.

 

When it comes to the most commonly impeller casting they include 316 (plates, gears, housing), 304 (food grade steel, housings, bodies), 304L/316L, 410 & 416 (brackets, bushings, handles, housings), and 17 (rods, links, pins, arms).
