Key Properties & Manufacturing Process
1. Tensile Strength
Marine-grade stainless steel (316) offers a minimum tensile strength of 515 MPa, ensuring structural integrity under heavy loads. This makes it ideal for coastal environments with high salinity and humidity. The alloy’s molybdenum content enhances resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, critical for marine applications.
2. Bend Strength
With a bend strength of 210 MPa, our stainless steel plates withstand deformation even under extreme stress. Precision cold-rolling and annealing processes optimize grain structure, reducing brittleness and enhancing flexibility.
3. Identification & Marking
- ASTM Standard Compliance: All plates are laser-etched with ASTM A240/A276 identifiers, including grade (304/316), batch number, and thickness.
- Surface Marking: Resistant to fading, ensuring traceability in harsh conditions.
4. Why Stainless Steel Can Rust?
While stainless steel is highly corrosion-resistant, improper maintenance or environmental factors can cause localized rusting:
- Chloride Exposure: Prolonged contact with saltwater or de-icing chemicals may induce pitting corrosion.
- Mechanical Damage: Scratches or dents disrupt the passive chromium oxide layer, exposing the base metal to oxidation.
- Galvanic Corrosion: Contact with dissimilar metals (e.g., carbon steel) in electrolyte-rich environments accelerates rusting.
