Stainless Steel Heat Treatment
Stainless steel is a type of alloy that contains a high percentage of chromium, which makes it resistant to corrosion and staining. However, to maintain these properties, it is often necessary to do heat treatment to the steel to improve its mechanical properties. By heat treatment, you can improve the stainless steel corrosion resistance, mechical performance and extend their life.
Benefits of Heat Treatment
The main benefits of heat treatment for stainless steels are an increase in strength and hardness, and a decrease in the amount of ductility. This makes stainless steel less likely to deform or fracture when subjected to stress. Additionally, heat treatment process can help to remove the residual stresses that may have been introduced during the manufacturing process, which can also improve the overall strength and durability of stainless steels.
Heat Treated Stainless Steel Pipes/Tubes
Gofar New Material supplies stainless steel tubes and pipes with wide specturm of grades and dimensions to diverse industries such as automotive industry, food & beverage industry, heat exchangers, dying and finishing equipment, water treatment, etc. Many of those stainless steel pipes are required to be suitable for various end forming processing like bending, flaring, flattening, upsetting, brazing, etc. All of those processing demand highly on stainless steel pipe’s mechanical properties.
