With a commitment to high-quality standards and a dependable supply chain, they cater to various industries, including construction, automotive, and manufacturing. Stainless Steel 3CR12 is a low-carbon, chromium-rich steel that boasts impressive corrosion resistance and durability, all while being budget-friendly. Smith Fittings guarantees that each sheet and plate adheres to strict quality standards, ensuring they perform reliably in tough conditions. Their expertise and commitment have made them a favored choice for stainless steel solutions across Australia.
Stainless Steel 3CR12 is a low-carbon ferritic stainless steel that contains about 12% chromium along with small amounts of nickel and carbon. This unique blend gives it moderate corrosion resistance, excellent formability, and good weldability. It has a tensile strength ranging from 450 to 550 MPa and a yield strength of approximately 250 to 350 MPa, with elongation typically falling between 20% and 25%. These mechanical properties make it a great fit for applications that demand durability and resistance to atmospheric corrosion, all while being more cost-effective than higher-alloy stainless steels.
