Advantages of Stainless Steel Hinges

2022-03-24


These are advantage of stainless Steel Hinges.

There are significant long-lasting benefits to using stainless steel for hinges. Stainless steel hinges have a significantly higher resistance to rust and corrosion against many man-made and natural environments.

Aside from having a shiny, sleek surface, stainless steel offers tremendous strength and has revolutionized nearly every type of industry including transportation, medicine, the food industry, and most importantly, construction.

 

*Low and High Temperature Resistance

Stainless steel hinges offer an easy solution for applications that require resistance to low or high temperatures. Some stainless steel is known to resist scaling while maintaining its high durable strength even at extremely high temperatures. Other types of stainless steel show exceptional toughness at low temperatures ranging to cryogenic levels.

 

*Corrosion Resistances

Stainless steel hinges are often the product of choice selected in marine applications because it is highly resistant to rust; much more than galvanized steel, bronze or brass.

Unlike traditional rusting with other metals, stainless steel corrosion tends to be somewhat random and highly localized. Tiny holes do have the potential of penetrating substantial thickness, and over time, the holes can cause cracks and leaks.

Even though stainless steels all have a high level of resistance to rust and corrosion, the lower alloy grades are known to have increased corrosion resistance in atmospheric conditions. Alternatively, high alloy grades are known to resist corrosion in most alkaline and acid solutions, along with chloride environments even at extreme elevated pressures and temperatures.

 

*Weight to Strength Advantage

Stainless steel has a significant weight to strength advantage. This provides the opportunity to use the material in a much thinner thickness than conventional graded metals. This often results in generating a significant cost savings. In addition, its ease of fabrication is often a result of modern day steel crafting techniques. Stainless steel can be fabricated, machined, cut, formed or welded just as readily as most traditional steels.

Although stainless steel hinges tend to have a higher cost than other materials, it still offers a highly appealing lifecycle cost benefit over all of the other available alternatives including carbon steels. These hinges are fabricated in a variety of styles, shapes and designs to meet the demands of many industries.
