Why Choose Stainless Steel?

Stainless steel is an iron-based alloy with a minimum chromium content of 10.5%, which forms a protective chromium oxide layer on the surface, giving it superior corrosion resistance. This characteristic, combined with the material's strength and aesthetic appeal, makes stainless steel a top choice for projects requiring both durability and an attractive finish.

Key Characteristics Stainless Steel

Stainless steel offers numerous advantages, making it an ideal material for metal spinning:

300 Series Stainless Steel

The 300 series is the most commonly used stainless steel family, primarily composed of chromium, nickel, and molybdenum. Key characteristics include:

  • Austenitic Structure: Non-magnetic and excellent for welding.
  • High Corrosion Resistance: Ideal for applications in aggressive environments.
  • Good Machinability and Formability: Easily spun into complex shapes.

400 Series Stainless Steel

The 400 series typically contains chromium and manganese, offering:

  • Martensitic Structure: Magnetic and capable of being heat-treated to enhance hardness.
  • Greater Strength: Stronger than carbon steel, making it suitable for heavy-duty applications.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Generally more affordable than the 300 series while still offering robust performance.
