Mechanical & Physical Properties
Tensile Strength
Stainless steel grades like 304 and 2205 duplex exhibit exceptional tensile strength, ranging from 505 MPa (Grade 304) to 800 MPa (Grade 2205). This ensures resistance to deformation under extreme loads, making them ideal for interlocking rail components in high-stress environments. Advanced heat treatment processes further enhance strength by 15–30%, ensuring structural integrity in dynamic applications.
Bend Strength
The ductility of stainless steel allows bending without fracture. For brushed stainless steel plate with ≤10mm thickness, a minimum bend radius of 1x thickness is recommended. Cold working (e.g., rolling) improves bend strength by 20–50%, suitable for seamless 2-section interlocking designs.
Identification & Marking
Stainless steel grades are labeled per international standards:
- ASTM: 304 (S30400), 316L (S31603), 2205 (S32205)
- EN: 1.4301 (304), 1.4404 (316L), 1.4462 (2205)
Laser etching or embossing ensures traceability and compliance with industrial specifications.
Weight Calculation Formula
Calculate plate weight using:
Example: A black ion-plated stainless steel plate of 10mm thickness (1m x 2m) weighs 160 kg.
Why Stainless Steel Corrodes?
While stainless steel resists rust due to chromium oxide layers (≥10.5% Cr), corrosion may occur under specific conditions:
- Chloride Exposure: Coastal or de-icing environments cause pitting corrosion.
- Mechanical Damage: Scratches or abrasions disrupt the passive layer, exposing iron to oxidation.
- Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with dissimilar metals (e.g., carbon steel) accelerates rusting.
- High Temperatures: Prolonged exposure above 400°C degrades chromium’s protective properties.
Preventive measures include:
- black ion-plated stainless steel coatings for enhanced corrosion resistance.
- Regular cleaning with pH-neutral solutions and passivation treatments.
Can Stainless Steel Be Plated?
Yes, stainless steel can undergo plating processes like ion plating or electroplating to enhance aesthetics or functionality. For example:
- Black ion-plated stainless steel provides a sleek, scratch-resistant surface for architectural applications.
- Nickel or zinc plating improves electrical conductivity for industrial components.
Plating must follow strict protocols to avoid compromising the base material’s corrosion resistance.
