Composition of rectangular pipe

Steel is an alloy of iron, carbon, and a few other elements. It should be remembered that stainless steel does not mean that this kind of steel does not rust or corrode, but that it is much more resistant to corrosion than alloys containing no chromium. In addition to chromium metal, other metal elements such as nickel, molybdenum, and vanadium can also be added to the alloy to change the properties of the alloy steel, thereby producing stainless steel with different grades and different properties. Simply put: steel is an alloy of iron and carbon. The other ingredients are intended to differentiate the properties of the steel. They contain the following ingredients:

Carbon – is present in all steels and is the most important hardening element. Helps to increase the strength of steel. We usually want tool-grade steel to have more than 0.5% carbon and also become high-carbon steel.

Chromium – Increases wear resistance, hardness, and most importantly, corrosion resistance, with more than 13% considered stainless steel. Despite this name, all steel will rust if not properly maintained.

Manganese – an important element that helps to create a textured structure, increases strength, and strength, and abrasion resistance.

Molybdenum – a carbonizing agent that prevents steel from becoming brittle and maintains the strength of steel at high temperatures. It appears in many steels.

Nickel – maintains strength, corrosion resistance, and toughness.

Silicon – Helps increase strength. Like manganese, silicon is used to maintain the strength of steel during its production.

Tungsten – Enhanced wear resistance. Tungsten is mixed with the appropriate proportion of chromium or manganese to make high-speed steel.

Vanadium – Enhances wear resistance and ductility. A carbide of vanadium is used to make strip steel.
