ALLOYS THAT WE CAN OFFER

CF3 ALLOY (MOST USED IN THE NAVAL INDUSTRY)

· Definition: Corrosion-resistant austenitic alloy typically used for pressure-containing components. CF-3A is a modified version of CF-3 to provide greater strength.

· Applications:Propellers, pump casings, suction manifolds, valve bodies and pump rotors.

CF8 ALLOY

· Definition: Austenitic stainless steel for general resistance to corrosion. This alloy provides great strength, resistance to wear and tear. It also has good toughness.

· Applications: Bearings, pump and valve components, chemical and food processing equipment, heat exchangers, and pulp / paper applications.

CA15 ALLOY

· Definition: The "400" series materials are general alloys with high resistance to corrosion.

· Applications: Mainly used in the fluid industry such as bearings, bushings, food and chemical processing equipment, conveyor rollers, rails, impellers, medical devices, pump and valve components, as well as turbine parts.
