Stainless steel elbow is different from carbon steel elbow is mainly different material, its chemical composition will keep the surface of the elbow for a long time will not rust, will not be corroded. Steel with a minimum chromium content of 10.5% and a maximum carbon content of 1.2%.
Austenitic stainless steel
The matrix is made of stainless steel with face-centered cubic austenite structure (γ phase), non-magnetic, mainly strengthened by cold processing (and may lead to a certain magnetic).
Austenitic – ferrite (duplex) stainless steel
A stainless steel with a magnetic substrate containing both austenite and ferrite (the content of the smaller phase is generally greater than 15%), which can be strengthened by cold working.
Ferritic type stainless steel
The matrix is a stainless steel with ferrite structure (α phase) dominated by body core cubic crystal structure. It is magnetic and generally cannot be hardened by heat treatment, but it can be slightly strengthened by cold working.
Martensite stainless steel
The matrix of martensitic structure, magnetic, through heat treatment can adjust its mechanical properties of stainless steel.
Precipitate hardened stainless steel
The matrix is austenitic or martensitic structure, and can be hardened (strong) by precipitation hardening (also known as aging hardening) treatment of stainless steel.
