2. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

   Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), and rustless steel, is an alloy of iron that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. It contains iron with chromium and other elements such as molybdenum, carbon, nickel and nitrogen depending on its specific use and cost. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results ...

3. Weld purging - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weld_purging

   Most weld purging is carried out on joints made by the TIG or GTAW arc welding process. [6] When the laser welding process is chosen, joints or welds being made on reactive materials will need to be carried out and in the case of electron beam welding, this is carried out in a vacuum, in which case purging takes place by complete evacuation of all gas.

4. SAE 316L stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_316L_stainless_steel

   SAE 316L grade stainless steel, sometimes referred to as A4 stainless steel or marine grade stainless steel, is the second most common austenitic stainless steel after 304/A2 stainless steel. Its primary alloying constituents after iron , are chromium (between 16–18%), nickel (10–12%) and molybdenum (2–3%), up to 2% manganese [ 1 ] , with ...

5. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_(manufacturing)

   Sometimes a part may require higher accuracy of form and size than can be provided by boring. For example, even in optimized boring, the amount that the diameter varies on different portions of the bore is seldom less than 3 micrometre (.0001 inches, "a tenth"), and it may easily be 5 to 20 micrometre (.0002-.0008 inches, "2 to 8 tenths ...

6. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

   The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless steel is Type 304, also known as 18/8 or A2. Type 304 is extensively used in such items as cookware, cutlery, and kitchen equipment. Type 316, also known as A4, is the next most common austenitic stainless steel. Some 300 series, such as Type 316, also contain some ...

7. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

   Oxy-fuel welding (commonly called oxyacetylene welding, oxy welding, or gas welding in the United States) and oxy-fuel cutting are processes that use fuel gases (or liquid fuels such as gasoline or petrol, diesel, biodiesel, kerosene, etc) and oxygen to weld or cut metals. French engineers Edmond Fouché and Charles Picard became the first to ...

8. Metal foam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_foam

   In materials science, a metal foam is a material or structure consisting of a solid metal (frequently aluminium) with gas-filled pores comprising a large portion of the volume. The pores can be sealed (closed-cell foam) or interconnected (open-cell foam). [1] The defining characteristic of metal foams is a high porosity: typically only 5–25% ...

9. Interference fit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interference_fit

   As an example, a 10 mm (0.394 in) shaft made of 303 stainless steel will form a tight fit with allowance of 3–10 μm (0.00012–0.00039 in). A slip fit can be formed when the bore diameter is 12–20 μm (0.00047–0.00079 in) wider than the rod; or, if the rod is made 12–20 μm under the given bore diameter. [citation needed] An example:
