MATERIAL APPLICATION

Material Selection

Material	Description	Application	Industry
304 stainless steel	Stainless steel 304 is the standard stainless steel. Versatile and widely used, it has excellent forming and welding characteristics.	Food processing equipment: beer brewing, milk processing and wine making, chemical mixing/ tanks, quarrying and water filtration	Food, Chemical, Mining
Mild steel	Mild steel is a steel alloy that contains a high amount of carbon. It is the most common form of steel as its price is relatively low while it provides material properties that are acceptable for many applications. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength and is neither extremely brittle nor ductile. It becomes malleable when heated, and so can be forged. It is also often used where large amounts of steel need to be formed.	Fabrication and pressing,	Automotive, Chemical, mining, industrial, cement plants, construction
SAF 2205	This alloy is a stainless steel which is characterised by high resistance to stress corrosion cracking in chloride bearing environments and in environments containing hydrogen sulphide. It has high resistance to general corrosion, pitting and crevice corrosion, high resistance to erosion corrosion and corrosion fatigue, high mechanical strength, good design advantages due to its properties, good weldability.	Production tubing and flow-lines for the extraction and gas and oil, heat exchange and pipes in desalination plants, processing and transport chemicals	Gas and Oil refineries, Desalination plants, Chemical
SAF 2507	SAF 2507 alloy is a super stainless steel with 25% Chromium, 4% Molybdenum and 7% Nickel. It is designed for demanding applications which require exceptional strength and corrosion resistance.	Chemical processing, petrochemical and seawater experiment, absorber towers, and piping	Chemical, Oil Refineries, marine, Desalination Plants, Power industry
Duaplate	Duaplate is a chromium carbide composite material that is bonded to a base material. Duaplate is known for being one of the most abrasive resistant surfaces available. Duaplate is available in a range of different grades to suit a variety of operating conditions.	Earth Moving, coal preparation, wood chip and pulp, Sugar processing	Construction, Mining, Wood Chipping, Food
Bisalloy	Bisalloy is a low alloy, high strength steel plate with yield strength three times that of carbon steel. Bisalloy features low carbon, excellent toughness and good weldability and formability. Utilising the high strength properties Bisalloy allows reduction in section thickness without loss of structural integrity	Transport Equipment, Lifting equipment – cranes excavator buckets, container handling	Transport, Construction, Mining
316 Stainless Steel	316 Stainless Steel is a standard molybdenum-bearing grade which gives 316 excellent corrosion resistant properties	Food preparation, laboratory benches and equipment, boat fittings, chemical containers	Food, Science, Shipping, Transport
Titanium	Titanium is immune to environmental attack regardless of pollutants. Titanium can withstand urban pollution, marine environments, and sulphur compounds found in industrial areas. Titanium has a high strength to weight ratio.	Power generation, chemical processing, desalination plants	Power generation, Chemical, Water
253 MA	MA 253 is a nitrogen alloy heat resistant stainless steel. It has excellent resistance to oxidation and high temperature corrosion (achieves optimal performance at 850-1100°C) and exhibits high mechanical strength at high temperatures	Tubes for the glass and cement industries, heat treatment	Construction, petrochemical, power industries
