In the current screw fastener industry, the material composition is mainly stainless steel screws and carbon steel screws, these two are more common, and they are used in a wide range. We all know that stainless steel screws and carbon steel screws have their own characteristics. People often ask, which of these two screws is better?
1. In layman's terms, carbon steel screws do not have steel specially added with alloying elements, while stainless steel screws are made of steel with high alloy content to imitate rust.
2. Stainless steel screws are far more expensive than carbon steel screws, mainly because the price of stainless steel materials is higher than that of carbon steel materials, because the performance of stainless steel materials is better than that of carbon steel, so you get what you pay for It's not unreasonable.
3. The purpose of these two screws is different. They are not good or bad. Carbon steel screws are usually stronger than stainless steel screws, but they are easy to rust.
4. Stainless steel screws and carbon steel screws are used in different environments. Compared with carbon steel screws, stainless steel screws are much more corrosive, so we can often see stainless steel in some food equipment. Carbon steel is less corrosive. Screws will rust to death after a long time. Stainless steel screws are relatively better.
All in all, stainless steel screws and carbon steel screws do not have to say which one is better. It is important to choose the right material according to the use scene.
