Stainless steel has a wide and important range of applications in many fields due to its excellent performance.

1、 In the field of architectural decoration

In the field of construction, stainless steel is one of the common materials. Stainless steel is often used for the exterior walls of high-rise buildings due to its corrosion resistance and aesthetic characteristics, with a service life of several hundred years. The long-term humid environment of the kitchen and bathroom requires extremely high hygiene and cleanliness of materials, and stainless steel has become an ideal choice. In addition, stainless steel is also used for decoration in low and high-rise buildings, educational and hospital buildings, sports venues, stations and other places, such as stainless steel decorative strips, skirting boards, edging, etc.

2、 Water industry sector

The transportation, storage, and purification of water require extremely strict materials. Stainless steel, with its environmentally friendly and corrosion-resistant properties, effectively avoids water pollution during transportation and greatly reduces water leakage rates. At present, relevant national policies actively support the development of stainless steel water pipes to ensure people's water safety. For example, in the Tokyo area of Japan, the stainless steel conversion of pipelines has reached 76%, significantly reducing the leakage rate of pipelines. At the same time, the newly developed corrugated pipe joints have also reduced construction costs.

3、 Automotive industry field

Compared with traditional steel, stainless steel not only has high strength, but also has good toughness, formability, and weldability. Therefore, stainless steel is widely used in automotive frames, giving cars the advantages of good impact resistance, light weight, high safety and reliability, and long service life. Stainless steel fuel tanks not only have no risk of fuel leakage, but also have excellent corrosion resistance and good formability, and can eliminate or simplify the painting process.

4、 Transportation field

Engineering steel plays an important role in the transportation industry due to its elasticity, strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. Steel accounts for over 50% of the weight of ordinary cars, and advanced high-strength steel used in vehicles can reduce weight, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions. Different types of steel are used for body, doors, engine, gearbox, steering, suspension, wheel axles, and interior parts. In addition, it is also used in transportation materials such as trucks, conveyors, trains, tracks, ships, anchor chains, aircraft landing gear, and jet engine components.

5、 Energy sector

Stainless steel is needed as infrastructure in various aspects of the energy sector, including nuclear energy, wind energy, electricity, and natural gas. Meanwhile, steel is also used for resource extraction, such as offshore platforms, earthmoving and quarrying equipment, cranes, and forklifts.

6、 Other fields

Stainless steel has applications in various fields, from tableware to aerospace and battlefield weapons. In the water industry, stainless steel is the best material for water preparation, storage, transportation, purification, regeneration, seawater desalination, etc. It has the advantages of corrosion resistance, earthquake resistance, water conservation, hygiene, light weight, low maintenance, long service life, and low life cycle cost. It is also a green and environmentally friendly material that can be recycled and reused. In terms of architectural decoration, stainless steel plates that have undergone surface treatment, coloring, and coating have solved problems such as fingerprints that are prone to occur after touch, further expanding their application scope.
