Stainless Steel Alloys

Strength & corrosion resistance

Stainless steel alloys are popular in motorsport engineering.

Stainless steel offers benefits in numerous applications due to material benefits including corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Certain stainless steel grades also provide good strength and impact toughness.

By virtue of the alloy's performance characteristics, stainless finds use in applications such as turbo chargers, exhaust systems, manifolds and coupling rods. With an aesthetically pleasing finish, it can also find use for more cosmetic purposes such as trims.

EXPLORE PRODUCTS
Stainless steel alloys benefit from excellent corrosion resistance.

Corrosion Resistance

Stainless steels typically offer excellent corrosion resistance to chemicals and oxidising environments.

Bar Stock

We stock stainless steel alloys in solid round bars and provide dedicated billeting services at our warehouses.

Modern Stockholding

Our head office in the UK is a state-of-the-art facility with modern cantilever racking, forklifts and processing equipment.

Fit for Purpose

Our stainless steel range is selected specifically for motorsport applications.

We stock a standard range of high-performance stainless steel alloys, which are available, ex-stock. These alloys typically benefit from high torsional and tensile strength, while providing a good degree of corrosion resistance, and increased hardness after heat treatment.

MARKET SCOPE
Stainless steel motorsport applications include bearings and valve stems. Stainless steel finds use in various motorsport applications, including racing car pedals.
Exhaust systems make use of stainless steels.

PH Steels

Precipitation hardening stainless steels

PH steels are popular in motorsport engineering for use in fasteners and valve parts. Typical attributes include good corrosion resistance, high strength and good ductility. Stress-corrosion resistance is also a benefit.

ABOUT PH STEELS
Fasteners are produced using precipitation hardening stainless steel. Stainless steel finds use across motorsport in racing series such as NASCAR.
Precipitation hardening (also known as age hardening) is a heat treatment process which strengthens and hardens stainless steel.

Processing Options

We utilise modern equipment to offer in-house processing services which accurately cuts your engineering materials to your individual size requirements.
