Stainless steel 1.4401 is also known as AISI 316 and is often applied in various industries due to its excellent properties. The steel is alloyed with chromium, nickel and molybdenum, which makes it very resistant to corrosion and other aggressive factors.
Steel 1.4401 is ideal for use in harsh environments such as salt water or chemically aggressive environments. Due to its high corrosion resistance, the steel has a long service life and needs minimal maintenance, and it also has a high temperature resistance. Another advantage of steel is its high strength and hardness, making it an ideal material for use in structural applications such as bridges, buildings and other structures.
Stainless steel 1.4401 also has excellent hygienic properties, so it is logically used in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry and healthcare. This steel is easy to clean and disinfect, making it an ideal material for use in these applications. Let us not forget the high weldability and stability of the material.
Due to the above properties, stainless steel 1.4401 is a very versatile material that is used in many industries. We will be happy to advise you on its adequate application.
