What does 316ss surfacing Stelair mean?
Stellite is an alloy that is commonly welded using surfacing techniques. It is commonly used for valve cores and seats in applications involving cavitation, flashing, highly abrasive media, media containing particles, frequent switching, and regulation.
Okay, thank you. I’ve learned something new – so it’s a valve body and valve core that are welded using 316 material. Could you explain what welding in this context means in more detail?
Cladding is a type of welding process; some forms of it involve single-sided welding with dual-sided formation, while others use double-sided welding. When multiple passes are required, cladding is achieved.
Thank you. I’m not an expert, so I don’t quite understand it, but I still appreciate your guidance
The base material is 316 stainless steel, with STL surfacing welded on.
Thank you, I’ve learned something from you. Hehe :victory:
By the way, what’s the use of things like luck points on forums? I only know that I can smash the golden egg, hehe
What type of stainless steel is 347ss? Is it better than 316? What’s the difference?
Stainless steel is selected based on the medium environment; the grade of stainless steel is determined accordingly. 347SS stainless steel is obtained by adding Nb to 304SS, which enhances the stability of its alloy structure. The heat treatment process involves water quenching followed by stabilization treatment. 316SS stainless steel is based on 304SS, with Mo added to refine the grain structure and enhance its resistance to intergranular corrosion; its heat treatment involves water quenching.
