At present, most manufacturers produce precision stainless steel strips with characteristics of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, high strength, and long service life. However, if used in harsh environments for a long time, it is inevitable that the service life will be shortened. Why do you say so? Let's analyze it below.

The Influence of Environment on the Service Life of Precision Stainless Steel Strip

At present, most manufacturers produce precision stainless steel strips with characteristics of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, high strength, and long service life. However, if used in harsh environments for a long time, it is inevitable that the service life will be shortened. Why do you say so? Let's analyze it below.

Firstly, if precision stainless steel strips are used in ultra-high temperature environments, their service life will be shortened.

Because the strength of the steel strip decreases with the increase of temperature, especially when the temperature exceeds 400 degrees Celsius, users need to ask the steel strip manufacturer because different processing techniques have different effects on its service life. When the temperature is below 400 degrees Celsius, most steel strips can still withstand it.

Secondly, long-term use of precision stainless steel strips in corrosive environments will shorten their service life. When the steel strip is exposed to air containing corrosive substances (acidic or alkaline environments) for a long time, rust and corrosion will appear on the surface, leading to increased wear and tear.

Therefore, when customers need to use precision stainless steel strips in corrosive environments for a long time, they should pay attention to their material selection and try to choose steel strips with good corrosion resistance. Generally speaking, the corrosion resistance of martensite steel strips is worse than that of Austrian steel strips.

We need to pay special attention to the selection of raw materials for precision stainless steel strips. The steel strip processed with martensite materials is easy to be corroded in the environment containing alkali and acid, so attention should be paid to corrosion prevention when using the steel strip.
