| Filter Nozzle | 304 Stainless Steel Filter Nozzles | 316 Stainless Steel Filter Nozzles |
| Stainless Steel 304 is the most commonly used material in filtration systems due to its excellent balance of strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness. It is ideal for water treatment applications where the water is not overly aggressive or highly corrosive. | For more demanding applications, particularly in seawater desalination, acidic or alkaline water, and other corrosive environments, 316 Stainless Steel is the material of choice. | |
| Advantage |
▪ Corrosion Resistance: While not as resistant as 316, 304 Stainless Steel offers strong protection against rust and corrosion in most freshwater environments.
▪ Cost-Effective: 304 stainless steel is more affordable than 316, making it a budget-friendly choice for many standard water treatment applications.
▪ Durability: With proper maintenance, 304 stainless steel nozzles offer long-lasting service in various conditions.
|
▪ Superior Corrosion Resistance: Due to the addition of molybdenum, 316 Stainless Steel is more resistant to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking, especially in saline and acidic environments.
▪ High-Temperature Resistance: 316 stainless steel can withstand higher temperatures, making it suitable for systems that operate in hotter conditions.
▪ Longer Lifespan: Though slightly more expensive, 316 stainless steel nozzles provide exceptional longevity and performance in harsh environments, reducing the replacement frequency and maintenance cost.
