Stainless steel quality standards
1. Stainless steel quality requirements Stainless steel is a steel material with good corrosion resistance and has a wide range of applications. The quality requirements of stainless steel mainly include chemical composition, mechanical properties, appearance quality, etc. 1.Chemical composition The chemical composition of stainless steel is mainly composed of chromium, nickel, molybdenum and other elements, of which the chromium content cannot be less than 10.5%. The chemical composition of stainless steel has an important impact on its corrosion resistance, heat resistance, mechanical properties, etc. Hua steel company has own PMI machine,we can do PMI testing to check the stainless steel sheets and plates’ chemical composition more quickly. 2.Mechanical properties The mechanical properties of stainless steel mainly include tensile strength, compressive strength, yield strength, elongation and other indicators. The mechanical properties of stainless steel materials directly affect its reliability and service life. Every time, when we prepare the stainless steel products like sheets, coils, bars, pipes, we will send customer MTC, mill certificate ,which shows mechanical properties. 3. Appearance quality The appearance quality of stainless steel refers to its surface quality requirements, which mainly include surface finish, surface condition, surface defects, etc. The qualification requirements for surface quality should comply with...
