Stainless steel is a steel alloy containing a minimum of 10% chromium and a maximum of 1.2% carbon. The chromium used in stainless steel forms an oxide layer on the steel surface. This layer also ensures that stainless steel has stainless steel properties. If the chromium oxide layer on the stainless steel is damaged for any reason, this layer repairs itself again in an oxygenated environment in a very short time. Thus, they maintain their stainless properties for a long time. Stainless steel is 100% recyclable. 60% of the stainless steel used is produced by re-evaluating recycled materials such as stainless steels taken from end-of-life products and scraps of production processes. Stainless steel has a high resistance to corrosion and oxidation in many natural and man-made environments. However, it is very important to select the correct grade and type of stainless steel for each specific application. The first step in quality selection begins with a detailed analysis and definition of all possible and existing operating conditions to which the stainless steel will be exposed during the design phase.
