MARINE INDUSTRY

The marine industry is among the sectors supplied by our company with stainless steel products. The properties and advantages of stainless steel make it an ideal material for marine applications. In addition, our advanced manufacturing facilities enable us to produce stainless steel products in the required forms and specifications to meet the needs of businesses operating in this sector.

Use of Stainless Steel in the Marine Industry
In the marine industry, stainless steel is widely used in both marine vessels and port facilities. It is used in the manufacture of engine components, cables, rudders, hulls, and cooling systems for ships, boats, personal watercraft, and ferries. In addition, stainless steel is used for gratings and mooring equipment installed at ports where vessels are berthed.

Importance of Stainless Steel in the Marine Industry
The purpose of using stainless steel in marine vessels is to eliminate the negative effects of seawater. The salty nature of seawater causes wear and tear on the vessels upon contact. However, the fact that these parts are made of stainless steel creates resistance to salt. Thus, they can be used for a longer period without wear and tear.

In addition to salt, seawater contains oxygen, which can accelerate oxidation of mechanical components. Thanks to stainless steel's high resistance to oxidation, ships and other marine vessels are able to operate efficiently and reliably for many years.

In addition, the surface finishing processes applied to stainless steel provide a smooth finish, ensuring a superior appearance for ship hulls and other marine components.

Stainless Steel Grade Used in the Marine Industry
The stainless steel grade most commonly used in the marine industry is Grade 316. Its higher chromium content is one of the primary reasons for its widespread use. The chromium provides enhanced resistance to oxidation and corrosion, making it particularly suitable for demanding marine environments.
