stainless steel sheet metal is one of the most versatile building materials. It is incredibly durable and easy to work with, and it can be used in projects from large industrial applications to intricate electronics applications.
The alloy of iron, chromium and nickel makes it resistant to corrosion. This means that it can be used in environments where sanitation is a top priority, like hospitals and hospitality facilities.
Its rust-resistant nature also makes it a great option for countertops and commercial kitchens. It is available in various finishes, from brushed to mirrored, and features a protective plastic film to prevent scratching or denting.
Choosing the right material for your project is a crucial step in designing and creating your product. Using the wrong alloy can lead to corrosion or other problems, which could result in a disaster.
Selecting the right grade is important too. Some stainless steels are more suited for specific applications than others. Chemical compatibility charts can help you make the right choice for your needs.
