Pitting corrosion is a non-reversible process i.e. once corrosion has begun you can only deal with the consequences.
Pitting corrosion generally occurs in aggressive environments, and where the protective passive film is damaged.
There are many different approaches to the measurement of corrosion, and specifically pitting corrosion.
The best defence against crevice corrosion is to limit the potential for crevices.
The main difference between pitting and crevice corrosion is the geometry of the corrosion site.
The most common form of crevices are very small gaps and contact points around fasteners, joints and washers.
Sandvik are a Swedish company associated with the production of high-performance stainless steels for many years.
Recycling of stainless steel is encouraged by the inherent value of its expensive alloy additions.
304 (UNS S30400, 1.4301) stainless steel is one of the most common grades of stainless steel.
The corrosion resistance of stainless steel lends its application in many aggressive environments for long-term performance.
Rust on the surface of stainless steel is often caused by contamination with a regular steel.
Stainless steels can be readily welded, as long as a suitable welding procedure specification (WPS) is defined and followed.
