Here are some of the most popular applications for Structural Steel Tubing: beams, pillars, bracing structures, parking lot barriers, staggered and conventional truss structures, exposed architectural structures, welded steel frames. [...]
Stainless steel is an iron alloy, which means that iron is combined with other materials to form a new metal. This means that different combinations can have different properties, [...]
Stainless steel (also known as “inox steel”) is used in many modern applications because of its remarkable strength, temperature resistance, and ability to resist corrosion and rust. These qualities [...]
Stainless steel is made up of some of the most common and basic elements found in the earth: iron ore, silicon, nickel, chromium, carbon, manganese, and nitrogen. Consult also [...]
Stainless steel is an iron alloy that is used in a wide range of everyday applications because of its exceptional resistance to stain and rust. There are more than [...]
A: 18-8 is another way of referring to 304 stainless and similar alloys (301, 302, etc.). The 18-8 refers to the 18% Chromium and 8% Nickel content of 304 [...]
This refers to higher tensile strength grades. Solution-annealed 304SS typically has an ultimate tensile strength of 75 ksi (515 MPa), Brinnell hardness 201, and Rockwell B Hardness 92. Quarter-hard [...]
330 stainless has 35% Nickel and 17% Chromium. This grade is used in very high-temperature applications, up to 1,900 degrees F (940 degrees C), such as for heat-treating baskets. [...]
321 stainless has 9-12% Nickel, 17-19% Chromium, and some Titanium. This grade has superior resistance to intergranular corrosion and is recommended for high-temperature and welded applications (but type 347 with [...]
304H has higher Carbon content (0.04-0.10%) than 304 and is used for high-strength applications. Consult also the following resources on our site: http://www.acierlachine.com/en/products/
