Yield strength steel
The elastic limit or also called the elasticity limit, is the maximum stress that an elastic material can withstand without suffering permanent deformations. In other words, it is when a material exceeds a limit when a force is applied to it where it no longer recovers its original shape. For metals that have a significant […]
Steel surface hardness
A very common objective within the metal industry is to modify the surface hardness of steel (see definition of steel hardness) without modifying the internal resilience. To modify the surface hardness of the steel, heat treatments and thermochemical treatments are used. Heat treatments The objective of heat treatments is to modify the mechanical properties very […]
Plasma cutting
Plasma cutting is a process in which conductive materials are cut by an accelerated jet of hot plasma. Typical plasma cut materials are stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, aluminum, copper, and other conductive metals. Plasma Cutting Utilities Plasma cutting is widely used in automotive manufacturing, repair and restoration, industrial construction, salvage and scrap. Due to […]
Boiler steels
El Boiler steels It is mainly made of specially hot-rolled, low-alloy carbon steel. This type of boiler steel is manufactured for the most important parts of the boilers such as: the boiler casing, the drum, the head cover and the hanger. Boiler steel plate material is usually medium / thick and has to be very heat […]
