Industrial-Grade Structural Solutions for Construction & Fabrication

​Product Specifications

​Mechanical Properties

1. ​Tensile Strength:

   • ​Grade 201: 750–950 MPa (109,000–138,000 psi) | ​316L: 485–650 MPa (70,000–94,000 psi).
   • Ideal for load-bearing frameworks in chemical plants, marine environments, and architectural façades.

2. ​Bending Strength:

   • Supports a 1:1.5 bend ratio (e.g., 60×60×8mm leg achieves 90mm radius) without structural compromise.

3. ​Yield Strength:

   • ​201: 345 MPa (50,000 psi) | ​316L: 170 MPa (25,000 psi).

​Technical Features

1. ​Weight Calculation:

   • ​Formula for Equal Legs:
     $W=0.00785\times t\times (2B-t)$
     Example: 50×50×5mm → $W\approx 3.73\text{kg/m}$.
   • Pre-calculated charts available for ​stainless steel 2 inch angle iron near me (50.8×50.8×6.35mm).

2. ​Marking & Traceability:

   • Laser-etched labels include grade (e.g., 316L), heat number, and compliance codes (ISO/ASTM).

3. ​Corrosion Resistance:

   • 316L contains 2–3% molybdenum for enhanced resistance to chlorides and acidic environments.

​Why Stainless Steel Angles May Corrode?

Despite their durability, improper handling or environmental factors can cause localized rust:

1. ​Chloride Exposure:
   • Coastal areas or de-icing salts degrade passive oxide layers, leading to pitting.
2. ​Galvanic Coupling:
   • Direct contact with carbon steel in humid conditions accelerates oxidation.
3. ​Mechanical Stress:
   • Repeated bending or welding without post-treatment weakens corrosion resistance.
4. ​High-Temperature Oxidation:
   • Prolonged exposure above 400°C reduces chromium’s protective properties.

Prevention Measures:

• Apply passivation treatments post-fabrication.
• Use insulating gaskets to prevent galvanic reactions.
