Advantages of stainless steel security camera pole

Stainless steel (304 material / 316 material) is a material with strong corrosion resistance. Due to its high cost, it is not often used in the field of Security camera poles; it is only used in some demanding scenarios (such as electric power field stations, petroleum valve rooms, and other areas).

 

Stainless steel (304 material / 316 material) is a material with strong corrosion resistance. Due to its high cost, it is not often used in the field of Security camera poles; it is only used in some demanding scenarios (such as electric power field stations, petroleum valve rooms, and other areas). In the following, we would like to introduce some of the characteristics of stainless steel material Security camera poles.

Advantages of stainless steel security camera pole

<1> Aesthetics: compared to carbon steel Security camera poles, stainless steel has an inherent advantage, because the natural color of stainless steel, after the surface polishing process, shows a silver-white color, and bright, the main welding process for the argon arc welding (does not produce weld slag), the finished product surface does not need to do any other part of any treatment, which is carbon steel material can not be compared. Carbon steel Security camera pole from raw material processing, to the output of the finished product, you need to go through the welding, pickling and galvanizing, surface grinding, surface painting, and other four links of processing, the surface due to the processing of welding slag, zinc slag, etc. is difficult to be cleaned up, on the overall aesthetics will have a greater impact.

<2> Corrosion resistance: as we all know, the corrosion resistance of stainless steel is significantly better than carbon steel, this is because, stainless steel contains at least 18% of chromium (Cr), chromium reacts with oxygen in the air to form a thin and strong chromium oxide film. This film has self-healing properties and can protect the metal matrix from further corrosion. Nickel content: 304 stainless steel also contains about 8% nickel (Ni), nickel enhances the corrosion resistance and toughness of the material, making the 304 stainless steel more stable and improving its oxidation resistance. Passivation: When 304 stainless steel is exposed to moisture or water, a passivation film will form on the surface, which is a protective oxide film that prevents further corrosion. Once this film is damaged, such as scratches or abrasion, if there is enough oxygen and humidity, it can repair itself again and re-form.

<3> Transportation convenience: Because the surface of the stainless steel Security camera pole has not been treated by other processes, there is no phenomenon of paint loss, in the transportation process of bumping that does not constitute damage to its appearance. This point is also a carbon steel Security camera pole that can not be compared, The carbon steel Security camera pole surface of the plastic spray layer in the transportation process is easy to cause bumps off the paint, and it is difficult to repair.

<4> Environmental protection: stainless steel Security camera pole raw materials are 304 or 316 materials, processing, welding of raw materials and stainless steel model match, and the surface does not need galvanized paint, that is to say, stainless steel poles can be achieved repeatedly recycled. Unlike carbon steel Security camera poles, the recycling of old poles also needs to go through de-painting, de-zincification, and other aspects of processing, stainless steel poles can be said to be truly in line with their environmental attributes.

Summarize: Although the above features make the stainless steel Security camera pole (304/316) have many advantages, but also can not be called perfect. For example, in some extreme environments or special conditions (such as the seaside), high concentrations of chloride ions will still be a threat to the rust resistance of stainless steel poles (such as pitting). Second is the high cost, whether 304 or 316 material, the cost of its raw materials is much higher than ordinary carbon steel material, which is also one of the reasons why it can not be widely used so that the choice of what material of the Security cameras pole, but also according to the use of scenarios and related budgets to decide.
