Metal material is a general term of pure metal or alloy in industry. Common pure metal includes gold, silver, copper, iron, aluminum, tin, nickel, lead, zinc, carbon, etc. Combining two or more metal or non-metal is called alloy. Alloys can adjust the properties of pure metals to more industrially demanding characteristics. Common alloy is composed of iron and carbon as ferroalloys, including steel, stainless steel, carbon steel, tool steel and alloy steel, etc. Ferroalloy is also the most broadly used and most important material in engineering technology among metal materials.
Metal materials are vitally important to the economic development of all countries in the world. Metal is a permanent material that can be cycled repeatedly without losing its properties. Metal materials can be recycled, reused and reduced waste, which is the basis for successful circular economy. From transportation, infrastructure, real estate to manufacturing, agriculture and energy industries, high-strength steel products keep expanding and reducing the weight of metal applications, which achieves circular economy.
WKPT not only provides cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, but also non-ferrous metal forming technology, such as die-casting and extruding deformed aluminum alloy processing. In addition to above materials, we also accept customers designated materials for processing.
Other Material
- Free-cutting steel:
By adding sulfur, tellurium, or 0.15~0.35% of lead to ordinary carbon steel, to have better machinability.
- Bearing steel:
It’s a high-carbon high-chromium alloy steel with good overall performance. It has evenly high hardness after quenching and tempering, high wear resistance and contact fatigue strength.
- Carbon structural steel:
Carbon structural steel refers to carbon steel with carbon content less than 0.38% and sulfur and phosphorus content more than 0.035%. It is usually rolled into rebar, steel bars, steel plates, steel pipes, etc.
- Nickel-chromium-molybdenum structural steel:
Add less than 1.0% molybdenum into nickel-chromium steel will get a tough steel. It is the best case hardening steel among structural steels.
We use cast iron, stainless steel, carbon steel and aluminum alloy as the main processing materials
