What are the typical applications of 1.4401 stainless steel structural hollow sections? 2024-9-24
1.4401 stainless steel, also known as AISI 316, is widely used for structural hollow profiles in a variety of applications due to its excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical properties and manufacturing capabilities. The following are some typical applications of 1.4401 stainless steel structural hollow profiles:

Chemical and Petrochemical Industry: Structural supports and frames for chemical processing plants, refineries and other industrial facilities handling corrosive materials.
Pipes, vessels and equipment supports exposed to acids, alkalis and other corrosive chemicals.

Marine and Offshore Applications: Structural components for ships, offshore platforms and other marine structures that need to withstand saltwater and coastal environments.
Handrails, walkways and other exposed structural elements in docks, docks and coastal facilities.

Food and Beverage Processing: Structural supports and frames for equipment, machinery and facilities in food and beverage processing plants where hygiene and corrosion resistance are critical.
Structural elements for dairy, brewery and distillery facilities.

Pharmaceuticals and Biotechnology: Structural supports and frames for clean rooms, laboratories and other specialized facilities in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries where corrosion resistance and cleanliness are critical.

Architecture and Interior Design: Structural elements in high-end buildings, such as stairs, balconies and facade systems, where stainless steel is valued for its aesthetics and corrosion resistance.
Structural support for glass, stone and other decorative materials in interior design applications.

Infrastructure and Utilities: Structural components for bridges, grade crossings and other transportation infrastructure in coastal or industrial areas.
Structural support for outdoor public facilities, such as shelters, canopies and signage, where corrosion resistance is important.

Generation and Utilities: Structural supports and frames for equipment in power plants, water treatment facilities, and other utility infrastructure that may be exposed to corrosive environments.

1.4401 stainless steel’s combination of corrosion resistance, mechanical properties and manufacturing capabilities make it a versatile and reliable choice for a variety of structural hollow profile applications, especially in industries and environments that require exposure to harsh conditions.
