Corrosion Resistance
Ice Fox Equipment walk-in refrigeration stainless steel is corrosion resistant. The metal stands strong against corrosion, rust, water stains, and more. This also makes the metal ideal for any area where there may be temperature and pressure extremes. When stainless steel is fabricated, chrome is added, which joins with oxygen in the air to create a film over the metal. This film repairs itself quickly when it is damaged, allowing the metal to resist corrosion and rust. The addition of other elements like nickel, titanium, and molybdenum enhances stainless steel’s corrosion-resistant properties even more.
