Interior design and stainless steel handrail

Posted on by Posted in Stainless Steel

There is a new trend in interior design to use products from stainless steel.

Even if this trend exists, there are still people who aren’t so into it. ‘Why?’, you might ask. Or maybe you could ask yourself: ‘Why would someone use stainless steel to decorate their own house?’

As crazy as it may seem, there are several reasons why you should give it a second thought. Stainless steel products have shown their utility during the years. And not only their utility but also their resistance and the ease in maintaining them.

We live in a busy world, so less and less women have time for giving too much attention or cleaning everyday some household items.

Also, these days, women are more oriented to a career then to be a housewife.

So, here the utility and the advantage of having some stainless steel products come to play their role.

Stainless steel products are very easy to clean. You only need a piece of an old cloth with some warm water or with a special cleaning product designed for stainless steel.

Also, keep in mind that the cleaning products for stainless steel are easy to find and they are cheap.

Stainless steel used as a decoration is easy to use. And it’s easy to find inspiration about how to use the decorations.

A simple check on Google can give you lots of ideas on how to decorate and on how to use the stainless steel products.

Types of corrosion in stainless steel

Posted on by Posted in Stainless Steel

As we talked in the last article about the corrosion of stainless steel and what causes it, today we’re going to talk about the types of corrosion which might happen.

As I mentioned in the previous article, it’s important to take into account several points when we talk about corrosion and see what might cause it.

Today, I’m going to introduce some types of corrosion which might affect the stainless steel.

  1. Pitting corrosion

This type of corrosion is local and it is a result of exposure to a specific environment. I know that all this might sound rocket-science but it’s not like that. Things are quite simple.

So, what does pitting corrosion really mean? Pitting corrosion is actually creation of the small holes in the metal.

Yes. Quite simple, right?

Usually, these small holes appear when the stainless steel is exposed to some kind of aggresive chemical substances.

  1. Crevice corrosion

This type of corrosion sounds rocket science too. But don’t worry it’s not. The only thing that’s rocket science is the name.

So, first thing first. What’s a crevice? A crevice can be defined as a confined space, where the access of the working fluid is limited. It sounds science-fiction, but if you take a look at the picture you’ll notice that basically this crevice means a small crack or a gap in the surface.

It might sound scarry and maybe that even the pictures look scary, but you don’t have to worry too much about it. This corrosion usually happens after a long period of time or when the products have been exposed to a harsh environment, with powerful factors or substances which can cause the corrosion.

However, I can recommend to take a look at the products available here: http://speedfab.com/. Speedfab’s products have a guaranteed quality and their stainless steel handrail, won’t cause you any problems regarding the corrosion.

Stainless steel handrail and corrosion

Posted on by Posted in Stainless Steel

One of the greatest fears of the customers when it comes to buying stainless steel handrail is corrosion related.

They are afraid that in the end the stainless steel won’t keep its nice appeareance and it will corrode eventually.

However, this is not true. If you take a look at a used stainless steel sink for example, you can see that the corrosion has not started yet.

You might ask yourself: ‘Ok, so what’s so special about this stainless steel if a normal corrosion process doesn’t affect it?’

Well, stainless steel is usually more corrosion resistant and it performs well in almost every environment.

Of course, that there a lot of factors which need to be taken into account when it comes to the resistance of the stainless steel. Anyway, this resistance to the corrosion is given from the elements which are a part of the stainless steel.

As you might know, the stainless steel is an iron alloy, with many other components such as: nickel, molybdenum, titanium, copper. Besides these metal components, there are also non-metal components such as: carbon, nitrogen.

All these components play an important role when it comes to giving resistance to the corrosion process.

Also, another important factor which contributes to the resistance of the stainless steel is the high attention paid to the details and the workmanship put in the creation of the stainless steel.

However, after purchasing the stainless steel handrails is important to take care of them. It’s good to have a regular maintainance, and make sure that you clean them regularly.

Keep in mind that the mainteinance isn’t rocket science. What you have to do is just to clean with products specially designed for stainless steel objects.

The tests have proved that the stainless steel products resist to extreme weather conditions, so you don’t have to worry about them if you have them indoors.

I can recommend you to take a look at these stainless steel products: http://speedfab.com/ .

The original process of castings

Posted on by Posted in eRank.TV

The whole process of casting has a lot of steps in order to get the final product. The process is a long one.

The first thing you need is a factory, also known as ‘foundry’.

What happens in this foundry?

In the foundry the metals are melted and casted in different shapes. Foundry is more like the place where everything which involves castings happens.

In a foundry you can find many other machines or things which help the castings come to life.

For example, a furnace is necessary in order to melt the iron. The iron must be melted in order to be able to cast it.

This is called the melting process. After the melting, the metal is put into a mold, where it can take several forms, depending on what is needed the metal for.

After the molding is done, and the new pieces of metal are done, they are usually transported to the retail company.

At the retail company, the products are taken care of, making sure that they meet all the quality requirements.

Back in the past, all the processes were conducted in a manual way, no machines were used even for the finishing stage of the casting process.

Nowadays, every foundry has different machines which ease the process and also they are ‘green’.

It’s important to keep this green aspect in mind, because the waste which remains after a process of casting, can be harmful for the nature.

Also, the law enforces every company to respect certain rules when it comes to the green space, especially if the company has activity in an area which can harm the environment.

However, we at Brockmoor Castings, we make sure that every criteria is met. We respect the environment, and we want to provide qualitative products when it comes to satisfying our customers’ need.

 

Why accreditations of a company are important?

Posted on by Posted in Metal Castings

Why accreditations of a company are important?

Nowadays, everybody has a company. All the people want to be entrepreneurs, and be financially independent.

However, as a customer you should always keep two things in mind:

  • No matter how cheap or good a company’s products might seem, always check for the accreditations they have and for certificates
  • Make sure that the certificates are not false

Of course, you might ask, why are these things important?

Well, it’s quite simple: the certificates prove that the company uses allowed products or environmentally friendly products.

There are cases when the law prohibits a certain type of products or ingredients used in the manufacturing of the products.

Why is this happening? Well, there are certain types of ingredients which when are combined they can harm the environment, and also the product can harm you when you use it due to its components.­­

This is why is important to make sure that you had done enough research of the whole company.

Also, it’s the duty of the company to make sure that this kind of informations are made available on their website. The law enforces them to make public this kind of information.

If you don’t find the certificates online, you can always make a phone call to ask or just simply go to the company, present yourself as a client and ask about this kind of information.

For example, if you are looking for castings or products related to foundry, you can take a look at brockmoor.co.uk.

Also, is important for a company to have a certificate for quality assurance. This means that the quality of the products is assured by the company and that they passed some quality tests.

Flexible Phones

Great invention, tech is getting smaller, thinner and I guess more flexible. Phones that have screen that acts like paper. You could roll it, put in pocket, backpack step on it and the device won’t have any damage. They said this technology will be out in 2013 but still there is no news about this.

The material which enables this to work is called Graphene. Material that is carbon, 100 times stronger than steel and conducts heat and electricity with ease. It was created in lab for the first time in 2003.

And with that they want to invent or create some interesting device that is able to bend and react as paper. Some of the laboratories are testing and building different kinds of prototypes of flexible display technology.

In the following years many electronic manufacturers want to apply this technology in e-readers, mobile phones and consumer electronics. I guess the world will be more flexible when this comes out.

I imagine having a flexible monitor or TV on the wall like from some SCI FI movies. It will save much space or it could be easier to pack when I have to move out. Who knows maybe they will develop flexible laptops, roll it up, go to work, unpack it on your working desk in your office and start working. Like some magical carpet.

The first concept for flexible display technology was given by Nicholas K. Sheridon in 1974. In 2003 Gyricon LCC was created with goal to commercialize the electronic paper technology developed by Xerox Parc.

When will this invention be available to the public i don’t know but it sounds fun and interesting.

There are many concepts which are based on this new flexible display technology. For example there is this smarthphone in a leather case concept which it is smartphone in a leather case.

All the components from which these phones are made are flexible, flexible battery, motherboard etc.
