Answers to FAQ about Materials and Processing Techniques

It is said that stainless steel does not rust. Is it true?

Generally speaking, stainless steel is regarded as rust-free material. Substantially, stainless steel is not rust-free but rust resistant material owing to a film produced by nickel and chrome contained in stainless steel.

Under certain conditions such that the stainless steel is exposed to wind and water containing sault or rust propagates from other material, it does rust. We polish the surfaces of a stainless product by buffing (#400) to a mirror surface finish to make the best use of the rust resistant property so that substances causing rust can be removed from the surfaces by rain or wind.

We manufacture products using SUS316, which is superior to SUS304 in rust resistance. Please feel free to contact us.

Do you accept requests for bending of hardware in various sizes, shapes, and materials?

We can manufacture bent hardware in a variety of shapes such as large-diameter hardware and hardware in complicated shapes. In rare cases, the product interferes with a die or the bending machine due to structure features. Please feel free to consult us. To obtain the best result, we figure out a good way.

Do you handle hot dip zinc-coated hardware and electro-galvanizing hardware?

We mainly handle stainless steel products in consideration of product lives and long-term maintenance costs. However, iron products (SS400) are included in our standard products. A product number of the iron product consists of letters and a three-digit number starting with “4.”
