Stainless Steel and Nickel Alloys

Stainless steel and nickel alloys – vessels, process equipment, welded assemblies

We manufacture process equipment, vessels, manifolds and plant components in austenitic stainless steels and nickel alloys for the pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries.

Materials

  • 1.4301/1.4307, 1.4401/1.4404, 1.4541, 1.4571
  • Alloy 625 (2.4856), C-276 (2.4819), Alloy 22 (2.4602), Alloy 825, Alloy 800H/HT

Material from European producers, inspection certificates 3.1 to EN 10204.

Welding

  • qualified welding personnel to EN ISO 9606; nickel alloys – material group 43 to ISO/TR 15608, up to 25 mm
  • WPS/WPQR; qualification of new procedures per project
  • pressure equipment up to category II under 2014/68/EU
  • ISO 3834, EN 1090

Protection against contamination

Stainless steel is processed at separate workstations with tools not used for carbon steel. This prevents free-iron contamination and pitting corrosion.

Surface treatment

  • pickling and passivation – local or by immersion
  • electropolishing
  • grinding and polishing, roughness Ra with measurement report

Inspection and documentation

  • Non-destructive testing (NDT): VT, PT, UT – scope as required by the customer
  • dimensional inspection with report
  • coating thickness measurement
  • inspection certificates 3.1, welding documentation
  • final inspection before shipment

Typical products

  • vessels, non-pressurised and pressurised
  • process equipment
  • manifolds, distributors, pipe assemblies
  • conical bottoms
  • channels, covers, frames
  • formed parts to drawing
