Why Stainless Steel Dampers?
For durability, corrosion resistance, tensile and shear strength, stainless steel is clearly a good choice. Its long lasting attractive appearance is another reason stainless steel is chosen for many applications, though this is probably not a factor where dampers are concerned. It retains its strength at high temperatures, which can be a factor in extreme environments. Also a factor is stainless steel’s intrinsically hygienic advantages, making it the correct choice for damper components of ventilation systems in clean room environments, in laboratories, and in pharmaceutical or food processing situations. Stainless steel dampers do not require painting, anodizing or other surface treatments. Stainless steel dampers are also an obvious choice for corrosive environments. And while stainless steel is initially more costly than other materials, its low maintenance needs and long life expectancy can make it cost-effective over the long run.
