Authentic Stainless Steel Coils

High oxidation resistance in at ambient is normally achieved with additions of more than 12% (by weight) . The chromium forms a of (Cr2O3) when exposed to . The layer is too thin to be visible, meaning the metal stays shiny. It is, however, impervious to and air, protecting the metal beneath. Also, when the surface is scratched this layer quickly reforms. This phenomenon is called by , and is seen in other metals, such as . When stainless steel parts such as and are forced together, the oxide layer can be scraped off causing the parts to together. When disassembled, the welded material may be torn and pitted, an effect that is known as .

Stainless have higher resistance to () and in many natural and man made environments, however, it is important to select the correct type and grade of stainless steel for the particular application.
