Stainless Steel Applications for Architecture

Unlike Galvanised Steel finishes, Stainless Steel products have been increasingly being used and specified for both spectacular and practical exterior architectural applications which have very little or no maintenance. However, in some instances, architects and designers do not know enough about stainless steel products and the vast range available. There is a need to make sure that the correct stainless steel grade and product is selected especially when exposed to coastal areas which have corroding sea salts (chlorides) and/or higher levels of urban or industrial pollution.
Molybdenum-containing Type 316 or more corrosion resistant molybdenum-containing stainless steels should be specified in these applications. Molybdenum improves pitting and crevice corrosion resistance, which is particularly helpful in preventing salt and corrosive pollution damage.
