The application scenarios of high-strength stainless steel coils are all based on the core requirement of "high strength", combined with their corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and other characteristics, to solve the load or environmental challenges that ordinary stainless steel coils cannot withstand.
1. Automotive industry: Balancing lightweight and safety performance
The automotive industry has a prominent demand for material strength, lightweight, and corrosion resistance. High strength stainless steel coils can replace some steel, achieving weight reduction and safety improvement.
Body structural components: High strength stainless steel coils (such as 301LN, 2205 duplex steel) are used to make the door collision beam, bumper frame, and chassis reinforcement. The tensile strength can reach 800-1200MPa, which not only improves the body's collision resistance, but also reduces weight by 10% -15% compared to ordinary steel.
New energy vehicle components: used for power battery casings and battery pack frames, with high-strength characteristics to protect the battery from impact damage; At the same time, it has corrosion resistance and is suitable for the environmental requirements of long-term battery use. Common materials include 304H and 316Ti.
Exhaust system components: High temperature resistant and high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 321, 310S) are used to make the exhaust pipe and muffler housing, which can withstand high temperatures of 600-1000 ℃ and also withstand the vibration load of the exhaust system, avoiding deformation and failure under high temperatures.
2. Construction machinery and heavy equipment: able to withstand extreme loads
Construction machinery is subjected to high loads, high wear, and harsh environments (such as dust and humidity) for a long time. High strength stainless steel coils can meet the strength and corrosion resistance requirements of key components.
Structural support components: used for reinforcing the arm frame and connecting the frame of excavators and cranes. High strength martensitic stainless steel coils (such as 420J2, 440C) or duplex steel coils are selected, with a tensile strength of ≥ 900MPa, which can withstand the huge impact force of heavy lifting and excavation operations.
Hydraulic system components: hydraulic pipelines, oil cylinder piston rods are made of high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 316LMod), which have both high strength and resistance to hydraulic oil corrosion, avoiding pipeline rupture or component wear under high pressure.
Mining machinery components: used for lining plates of mining crushers, conveyor belt drum shaft sleeves, with high-strength characteristics that can resist ore impact and wear, and corrosion resistance that adapts to the humid and dusty environment of mines. Common materials include 2507 duplex steel.
3. Aerospace and Defense: Adapting to Extreme Environments
Aerospace and defense equipment have high requirements for material strength, high and low temperature resistance, and fatigue resistance. High strength stainless steel coils are the core material selection for some key components.
Spacecraft structural components: High strength stainless steel coils (such as PH13-8Mo precipitation hardened stainless steel) are used to make the spacecraft cabin support frame and engine bracket, with a tensile strength of up to 1300-1500MPa. While being lightweight, they can withstand the vibration during launch and extreme temperature differences in space.
Aircraft engine components: used for engine blade outer rings and combustion chamber components, using high temperature resistant and high-strength stainless steel coils (such as Inconel 718 alloy coils, which are derived from stainless steel high-temperature alloys), can withstand high temperatures above 1000 ℃, and also withstand centrifugal forces generated by high-speed rotation.
Weapon equipment components: Manufacturing firearm components and protective plates for armored vehicles. High strength characteristics can enhance the durability and protective ability of weapons. Some components are made of martensitic high-strength stainless steel coils, which have both hardness and toughness.
4. Petrochemical and Ocean Engineering: Dual Requirements for Corrosion Resistance and High Strength
In the petrochemical and marine engineering environments, there are high temperatures, high pressures, and strong corrosion (such as seawater, acidic and alkaline media), and high-strength stainless steel coils need to meet both strength and corrosion resistance requirements.
Oil and gas transmission pipelines: Double phase steel high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 2205, 2507) are used to make submarine oil and gas transmission pipelines and land high-pressure oil pipelines. The tensile strength is ≥ 800MPa, which can withstand the pressure of deep-sea high pressure and oil and gas transmission, as well as resist corrosion from seawater and oil and gas media, avoiding pipeline leakage.
Marine platform structural components: used for the deck, brackets, and mooring system components of marine platforms. High strength stainless steel coils can resist wave impact and sea wind corrosion, while also bearing the weight of the platform itself and equipment loads. Common materials include S31803 duplex steel.
Chemical equipment components: Produce reaction kettle shells, high-pressure storage tank reinforcement rings, and use high-strength corrosion-resistant stainless steel coils (such as 316LHN) that can withstand high temperature, high pressure, and corrosive media in chemical reactions, avoiding equipment deformation or corrosion failure.
5. New energy and equipment field: matching functional requirements
With the development of new energy and equipment, the demand for high-strength stainless steel coils continues to grow, mainly suitable for high load and precision scenarios.
Photovoltaic and wind power equipment: The flange connection pieces of the wind power tower and the high-strength connection pieces of the photovoltaic bracket are made of high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 304HC, 316Ti), which can withstand wind loads and outdoor environmental corrosion, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.
Precision Machinery: Used as transmission components for machine tool spindles and precision instruments, high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 9Cr18Mo) have high hardness and strength, can withstand the load generated by high-speed rotation, and also have certain corrosion resistance, reducing maintenance costs.
2、 Key points of selection: matching the core requirements of the scenario
When choosing high-strength stainless steel coils, it is necessary to focus on the three core dimensions of "strength requirements, environmental adaptability, and processing performance" and match the scene requirements.
Clear strength indicators: Determine the required tensile strength and yield strength based on the load borne by the component (such as tension, pressure, impact force), to avoid cost waste caused by excessive selection or safety hazards caused by insufficient selection.
Adaptation to environmental characteristics:
Corrosion environment: Prioritize the use of duplex stainless steel coils (such as 2205) or precipitation hardened stainless steel coils (such as PH13-8Mo) to balance corrosion resistance and strength.
High temperature environment: Choose high temperature and high-strength stainless steel coils (such as 310S, 321) to ensure that the strength does not significantly decrease at high temperatures.
Low temperature environment: Avoid choosing martensitic stainless steel coils (with poor low-temperature toughness), and prioritize austenitic high-strength coils (such as 301LN).
Consider processing technology:
For parts that require stamping and bending, choose austenitic or duplex stainless steel coils with good ductility (such as 301LN, 2205).
For the components that need to be welded, choose duplex steel coils or austenitic coils with excellent welding performance to avoid a decrease in strength after welding.
Balancing cost and performance: While meeting performance requirements, prioritize selecting materials with high cost-effectiveness, such as 304H for ordinary high-strength scenarios and 2205 duplex steel for strong corrosion and high load scenarios.
