  • Stainless Steel Characteristics
    Engineers understand that there are many different types of stainless steels and they all have slightly different characteristics. Of course, a food industry application suggests using stainless steel. But the specifics of the equipment may require a particular type. For example, let's say you need
  • Steel
    a difference in the performance of steel bars for particular purposes. Although grade is not the only factor that influences a metal's machinability and other characteristics, it does play an important role. AM&F also provides registered users of this site with extensive information on the properties
  • Carbon Steel
    by chemical composition, mechanical properties, method of deoxidation, or thermal treatment (and the resulting microstructure). Wrought steels are most often specified by composition. No single element controls the characteristics of a steel; rather, the combined effects of several elements influence
  • Tool Steel & Tool Steel Supplier
    that characterize tool steels requires heat treating. Deformation can be a problem during quenching. Selecting the best alloy for an application calls for obtaining the desired characteristics with the least amount of deformation during quenching. AM&F keeps dozens of grades of tool steel in stock
  • Alloy Steel
    Steels that contain specified amounts of alloying elements -- other than carbon and the commonly accepted amounts of manganese, copper, silicon, sulfur, and phosphorus -- are known as alloy steels. Alloying elements are added to change mechanical or physical properties. A steel is considered
  • HSLA Steel
    Those steel alloys known as high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels provide increased strength-to-weight ratios over conventional low-carbon steels for only a modest price premium. Because HSLA alloys are stronger, they can be used in thinner sections, making them particularly attractive

  • Stainless Steel Anodizing and Electropolishing
    This technical bulletin briefly discusses stainless steel anodizing and electropolishing. Anodizing is designed to enhance the localized corrosion resistance of stainless steels, while brightness and smoothness are the primary results of electropolishing stainless steels with the side benefit
