No.1 Stainless Steel: A Durable Choice for Industrial Applications

In the process of global industrialization and modernization, stainless steel materials have become an indispensable and important material in all industries due to their excellent performance and wide application fields.Aoxing Metal focusing on the production and exporting of stainless steel materials, we are committed to providing customers with high-quality hot-rolled stainless steel products. This article will introduce the NO.1 surface treatment process, main characteristics of hot-rolled stainless steel and its wide application in chemical equipment, construction and heavy machinery fields, so as to help you better understand the advantages of this material.

The processing of Stainless Steel

NO.1 stainless steel surface is processed by hot rolling process. This process involves several key steps:

1. Hot rolling molding: After heating the stainless steel blank to high temperature, it is rolled several times through the rolling mill to achieve the required thickness and size.

2.Annealing treatment: Stainless steel after hot rolling is annealed to remove internal stress and improve the mechanical properties of the material.

3.Pickling treatment: The surface of annealed stainless steel will form an oxide, and the oxide will be removed by pickling process, so that the surface will show a uniform rough texture.

4.Cooling and leveling: Finally, the material is cooled and leveled to ensure its dimensional accuracy and surface quality.

The Characteristics of NO.1 Stainless Steel

-High strength: The hot rolling process gives stainless steel higher mechanical strength and can withstand heavy loads and extreme environments.

-Corrosion resistance: After pickling treatment, a dense oxide film is formed on the surface, which enhances the corrosion resistance.
-High temperature resistance: It can still maintain stable performance in high temperature environment, suitable for high temperature equipment manufacturing.
-Economical and practical: Compared to other surface treatment processes, NO.1 treatment costs are lower, suitable for large-scale applications.
-Machinability: easy to cut, weld and form to meet diverse processing needs.

The main Application of NO.1 Stainless Steel

1.Chemical Industry

In the chemical industry, equipment is often exposed to corrosive environments such as strong acids and strong alkalis. With its excellent corrosion resistance and high strength, NO.1 stainless steel has become the first choice material for manufacturing reactors, storage tanks, pipelines and other equipment. Its rough surface properties can also effectively prevent media from adhesion and reduce equipment maintenance costs.

2.Construction Field

In the field of construction, NO.1 stainless steel is widely used in structural support, exterior wall decoration and roofing materials. Its high strength and weather resistance allow it to withstand severe weather conditions, while the rough surface texture adds a unique industrial style to the building.

3.Machinery manufacturing

In the field of mechanical manufacturing, NO.1 stainless steel is widely used in engineering machinery, mining equipment and ship manufacturing due to its high mechanical strength and fatigue resistance. Its reliable performance ensures stable operation of mechanical equipment under extreme operating conditions.
