Stainless steel processing

Stainless steel is known for its rust resistance. The alloy in the metal makes stainless steel (inox) resistant to corrosion in many environments. Processing stainless steel can be tricky, as stainless steel has high hardness and strength. Processing stainless steel sheet metal listens closely. 247TailorSteel has the right tools to customise your stainless steel sheet and bending work. You can also easily have stainless steel sheet and tube material for salty or acidic environments machined at 247TailorSteel. Request your quotation within one minute in our online software Sophia®.

What is stainless steel?

Although many people describe it as stainless steel, this is not quite correct. There is actually a layer of rust present on the metal; the oxide layer. The oxide layer is clear and colour invisible unlike rust on other metals, where brown rust stains are often visible.

Machining with stainless steel

Working stainless steel sheet metal and pipes has to be done precisely. Stainless steel is a strong and hard metal, by improper use of tools there is a chance that it is not the stainless steel that gets deformed but the tools. Therefore, have your stainless steel sheet made to measure. Find all available stainless steel products listed here.

Stainless steel and machining

When machining stainless steel sheet, good tools are important. Stainless steel is a strong steel and has a difficult machinability. For example, the wrong kind of drill bit can deform due to the friction created when piercing stainless steel. You can start grinding, drilling and bending yourself or easily outsource it. 247TailorSteel processes different types of stainless steel, suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

What are the applications of stainless steel?

Stainless steel is resistant to all weather conditions. That is why it is used to make waste bins, switchboards, kitchens and shelving, among other things.

Properties of stainless steel:

  • Good corrosion resistance
  • High tensile strength
  • Waterproof
  • Sustainable

Wide range of stainless steel

Stainless steel is an alloy steel with a high chromium content.
