Corrosion-resistant cast steel is a specific group of cast steel grades which, due to their composition and special treatment, exhibit a high resistance to corrosion. This ability to withstand degradation caused by chemical reactions with the environment makes them indispensable for a wide range of demanding applications.
Corrosion-resistant steel
Consistent performance in any environment
These steels do not corrode immediately when exposed to corrosive conditions.
Properties of corrosion-resistant steel
High corrosion resistance
Resistance to rust and other forms of corrosion, even in aggressive environments.
Long service life
Components made of corrosion-resistant cast steel require little maintenance.
Aesthetics
Corrosion-resistant steels retain their appearance over time.
Easy to clean
Ideal for applications in the food and pharmaceuticalindustries.
Areas of application
Corrosion-resistant steel has a wide range of applications: in the chemical industry for tanks and pumps, in the food industry for plant and pipework, and in medical technology for instruments and implants. Corrosion-resistant cast steel is also used in shipbuilding for hulls and propellers, and in the offshore sector for oil and gas production.
