Sheet dimesion:
Thickness:0.3-20mm
Width:100-1500mm
Length:500-3000mm
Characteristics:
Excellent mechanical properties at both extremely low and extremely high temperatures.
Outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and intercrystalline corrosion.
Almost complete freedom from chloride induced stress corrosion cracking.
High resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures up to 1050C.
Good resistance to acids, such as nitric, phosphoric, sulfuric and hydrochloric, as well as to alkalis makes possible the construction of thin structural parts of high heat transfer.
