Stainless Steel: Properties, Advantages, Products

Fortis Metals is a full-service stainless steel supply company that is aware of your demands and has locations all over the world. A wide variety of metals and forms are available in our stainless steel inventory. We provide the following benefits:

Because of its numerous advantageous qualities, stainless steel is widely used to make parts and components for a variety of industrial applications. Most importantly, its high chromium concentration makes steel incredibly corrosion-resistant. Steel that contains at least 10.5% chromium is around 200 times more corrosion-resistant than steel that does not. Customers also benefit from its great strength and durability, resilience to high and low temperatures, enhanced formability and simplicity of fabrication, minimal maintenance, extended lifespan, appealing look, environmental friendliness and recyclable nature. Stainless steel does not require coating, painting, or treatment once it is in use.

Because stainless steel contains chromium, it resists corrosion. For increased resistance to acids, alkaline solutions, and saline conditions, we utilise 316-grade stainless steel that has been fortified with molybdenum.

Because of its resistance to oxidation, stainless steel maintains its strength even under harsh circumstances, including fire and high temperatures. In terms of fire resistance, it performs better than aluminium and galvanised steel.

Stainless steel is simple to clean and sanitise due to its smooth, non-porous surface, which inhibits the accumulation of dirt and bacteria. Perfect for labs, hospitals, and kitchens.

Stainless steel is strong, resilient, and does not break easily in extremely hot or cold conditions. It is simple to produce and works well in cold environments.

Stainless steel is a timeless option for both utilitarian and decorative applications because of its sophisticated, contemporary appearance, which goes well with a variety of materials and designs.

Because stainless steel is made from around 70% scrap metal, it is completely recyclable and has no negative environmental effects due to its inability to absorb harmful chemicals.

Because of its extended lifespan, competitive pricing, minimal maintenance costs, and recyclability, stainless steel is an affordable option.

We provide various stainless steel shapes, including conventional sheets, plates, bars, and other ornamental pieces. Contact us to find out more about our stainless steel supplies and buy stainless online without further ado!
