Advantages of using stainless steel in manufacturing
Stainless steel is a widely used and versatile material used in metal fabrication. This is for many reasons, including:
Corrosion resistent
Stainless steel contains chromium which forms a passive oxide layer on the surface of the metal. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where exposure to moisture, chemicals and harsh environments is a concern.
It’s extremely durable
As a strong and durable metal, it can withstand high temperatures and pressures. This makes it useful for industries which require industrial-grade materials.
It’s easy to sterilise
Its smooth and non-porous surface resists bacterial growth. These hygienic qualities make it a commonly used metal in industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals and healthcare.
Eco-friendly choice
It can easily be recycled and reused repeatedly without any effect to the quality. This makes it a preferred choice for manufacturers who have sustainability in mind.
Easy to work with
Due to its properties, it can easily be fabricated, formed, welded and cut. This makes it a useful material for creating complex shapes and structures.
Longevity
Due to its highly rust-resistant nature, stainless steel has a long lifespan. This is beneficial for manufacturers who require parts that function over a long period.
Aesthetic appeal
As well as having many practical benefits, stainless steel has a sleek and modern appearance. It can also be polished and brushed to achieve different finishes.
