Why is 430 stainless steel pipe not easy to weld?
Why is 430 stainless steel pipe not easy to weld?

1. High thermal conductivity: Compared with austenitic stainless steel, 430 stainless steel pipe has higher thermal conductivity. This means they can dissipate heat more efficiently, and maintaining the heat required for welding can be challenging. 2. Rapid cooling rate: 430 stainless steel pipes tend to experience rapid cooling rates during the welding process, especially in thicker sections. This rapid cooling can lead to the formation of brittle phases, such as martensite, in the heat-affected zone, increasing the risk of cracking. 3. Sensitivity to hydrogen embrittlement: Ferritic stainless steel is more susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement during the welding process. The welding process introduces hydrogen into the material, which if not managed properly can lead to the formation of hydrogen-induced cracks. 4. Susceptibility to hot cracking: 430 ferritic stainless steel is prone to hot cracking, especially in the presence of impurities such as sulfur and phosphorus. The welding process can introduce these impurities, and proper welding techniques such as preheating and controlling interpass temperature are critical to minimizing the risk of hot cracking. 5. Limited ductility at low temperatures: 430 stainless steel exhibits reduced ductility at lower temperatures, and the welding process involves localized heating and cooling. This temperature fluctuation can cause...

Stainless steel weld treatment method
Stainless steel weld treatment method

Regarding stainless steel weld seam treatment methods, Senyuan provides a variety of solutions. CA-Q04 produced by Senyuan can process stainless steel weld seams very well and is suitable for weld seam treatment of 200, 300, and 400 series stainless steel, including austenitic. Stainless steel, ferritic stainless steel, martensitic stainless steel, and duplex stainless steel can all effectively and quickly remove welds. Weld treatment method of ferritic stainless steel (1) Ferritic stainless steel does not undergo phase transformation during heating and cooling, and does not undergo quenching hardening. (2) The parts heated to above 950°C (welds and heat-affected zones) have a serious tendency to grow grains, and post-weld heat treatment cannot be used to refine coarse grains, which reduces joint toughness and increases the tendency of cold cracking. (3) If the weld and heat-affected zone stay in the temperature range of 400~600℃, “475℃ brittleness” will easily occur. Staying in the temperature range of 650~850℃ will easily cause 8-phase precipitation and embrittlement. (4) When welding, attention should be paid to the heating and cooling rates in the above two temperature ranges. Short-term heating above 600℃ followed by air cooling can eliminate 475℃ embrittlement; heating to 930~980℃ and rapid cooling can eliminate phase...

Differences and uses of stainless steel 2D surface and 2B surface
Differences and uses of stainless steel 2D surface and 2B surface

The differences and uses of stainless steel 2D surfaces and 2B surfaces can be briefly summarized from the following two blocks: 1. Introduction to the differences between stainless steel 2D surface and 2B surface: Many customers still don’t quite understand the difference between the 2D surface and the 2B surface of stainless steel. Here is a brief introduction: NO.1 Silvery white, matte. A rough, matte surface that is hot-rolled to a specified thickness and then annealed and descaled. Uses that do not require surface gloss. NO. Stainless steel 2D surface, silver-white cold rolling, heat treatment and pickling, sometimes a final light rolling on the rough side roller, a matte surface processing 2D product used for purposes that do not have strict surface requirements, general materials, Deep drawing materials. NO. The surface gloss of stainless steel 2B is stronger than that of stainless steel 2D. After surface treatment of stainless steel 2D, it is subjected to a final light cold rolling with a polishing roller to obtain appropriate gloss. This is the most commonly used surface treatment and can also be used as the first step in polishing. The 2D surface of general stainless steel is also one of the common...

Theoretical Weight of Stainless Steel Channel Steel
Theoretical Weight of Stainless Steel Channel Steel

Stainless steel channel steel theoretical weight calculation formula 1. Calculation formula of theoretical weight of stainless steel channel steel The unit of measurement for calculating the theoretical weight of steel is kilograms (kg). Its basic formula is: w (weight, kg) =F (cross-sectional area mm2) xL (length, m) Channel steel: (kg/m) W=0.00785 ×[hd+2t (b – d) +0.349 (R2 – r 2)] Description of the meaning of each symbol parameter: h=high b=leg length d=waist thickness t=average leg thickness R=inner arc radius r=end arc radius 2.
