STALEXPERT - Stainless steel

Stainless steel

Martensitic steel is magnetic and has high strength properties. It is most often produced as stainless steel bars used in the petroleum, chemical and energy industries, which are used to make parts for pumps, turbines e.g.: pump shafts, bearings, valves or parts of measuring equipment.

Ferritic steel is called ferritic because it has ferrite in its structure, which is a solid solution of carbon in iron. It is ductile and contains minimal amounts of chromium to ensure 'stainlessness', and the low chromium content translates into a relatively low price compared to austenitic stainless steels. Ferritic steels are most commonly used by steel mills to produce stainless steel sheets, which are used in the automotive industry, e.g. for exhaust systems, in the white goods industry, e.g. for dishwashers, washing machines, cookers or cutlery, and in the construction industry, e.g. as wall panels or lift trims.

Austenitic steels contain much higher values of chromium and nickel in their composition, which translates into even higher corrosion resistance and an increase in yield strength during cold working. The higher grades also retain their corrosion resistance when in contact with aggressive chemical environments, which is why it is referred to as acid-resistant steel. On the other hand, it does not have the hardenability of martensitic steels. Austenitic steels are available in a much wider range of metallurgical products.

Metallurgic products made of austenitic stainless steel , also known as acid-resistant steel, are available in a much wider range of products. Both acid-resistant bars, acid-resistant sheets, acid-resistant pipes, acid-resistant profiles, stainless angles, stainless I-beams, sleeves or thick-walled stainless pipes and stainless flat bars are produced. Stainless-acid-resistant steel is used in many branches of industry: in the automotive industry, white goods, chemical industry, marine industry, and also in medicine, where tools are made from them, as well as implants, endoprostheses, bone screws, bone plates, etc.
