The Importance of Ferrite Testing
Ferrite testing is vital for:
- Predicting Material Behavior: It helps anticipate how austenitic and duplex stainless steels will react during welding.
- Maintaining Material Properties: Proper ferrite levels are crucial for corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and preventing hot cracking.
Equipment We Use
Our Ferrite Testing Methods
We employ both destructive and non-destructive methods:
- Metallographic Analysis: Involves detailed examination of material micro-sections.
- Magneto-Inductive Testing: Utilizes a Ferritoscope for quick, on-site assessments.
FT Application
Calculating Ferrite Content
Our techniques include:
- Image Analysis: High magnification inspection following ASTM E 562 standards.
- Quick Test: Magnetic induction measurement for immediate ferrite content estimation.
Advantages of Choosing FT
Why Ferrite Content Matters?
The ferrite percentage is key to:
Ensuring Mechanical Integrity:
- Affects tensile strength, toughness, and hardness.
Preventing Corrosion:
- Influences material’s resistance to corrosive environments.
Guaranteeing Reliability:
- Critical for the long-term performance of welded structures.
