Hi,
I am working for a small engineering company with less with 20 employees.
We are trying to manufacture a some number(~5000pc) of tapered tubes(~10" length) in China.
They are going to be either stainless steel or aluminium. We haven't decided which way is the best.
I was thinking about die...
Hi,
While I was researching about anodizing aluminum I learned that anodizing aluminum reduces fatigue strength of the material.
So that aluminum parts can fail and break under the load below their endurance limit.
I realize that most climbing hooks on the markets are anodized and dyed.
Why do...
I did more research and expressed my concerned to my supervisor.
He said the product won't be used under the environment where salt water is present.
But other senior engineer is going to take a look at the paper to make sure whats going on.
Thank you for the comments!
Thanks TVP,
According to the reference the difference in Titanium and S/S304 is only 0.03V.
I suppose I don't have to worry about galvanic corrosion.
I will look into crevice corrosion in seawater for SS304.
Hi everyone :)
For the project I am working on, I am using a Titanium grade 5 threaded rod with S/S 304 plates and nuts.
I am concerned about galvanic corrosion. Both Titanium and S/S 304 are safe for the application environment(steam, salt water, etc) but I am not sure how they are going to...
