STAINLESS STEEL ADVANTAGES

There are two types of stainless steel: the austenitic structure gathering A.I.S.I. 300 (301 to 348) grades and those of ferritic structure gathering A.I.S.I. 400 and 500 (403 to 446, 501 and 502) grades. The austenitic stainless steels generally have less carbon, two times more manganese, and also, they have a high content of nickel when the ferritic steels contain none or few. For the manufacturing process of its doors and frames, Métalec uses an austenitic stainless steel. Its remarkable resistance to corrosion is due to a chromium-rich oxide protective film which forms on the surface when exposed to ambient oxygen. There is no doubt stainless steel is a contemporary and durable choice for all architectural projects. Métalec stainless steel doors and frames are chosen for the following characteristics:

• Aesthetics;
• Excellent resistance to the corrosion and to chemicals;
• Heat and fire resistance;
• Easy maintenance.
