Whenever you enter the kitchen, you will see almost all stainless steel kitchen equipment and kitchenware. I am curious why people buy stainless steel equipment and kitchenware. Let's take a look with SHINELONG editor. Why are kitchen equipment made of stainless steel? Stainless steel is the most commonly used material for commercial kitchen equipment. It is not only strong and durable, but also healthy and environmentally friendly. The appearance of stainless steel is neat and beautiful, bringing a clean and bright visual environment to the kitchen. 1. Weldability: The requirements for welding performance vary depending on the use of the product. Class I tableware generally does not require welding performance, even including some pot companies; but most products require good welding performance of raw materials, such as Class II tableware, thermos cups, steel pipes, water heaters, water dispensers, etc. 2. Polishing performance: In today's society, stainless steel products generally undergo the polishing process during production. Only a few products such as water heaters and water dispenser tanks do not require polishing, so the polishing performance of raw materials is required to be high. 3. Heat resistance: Heat resistance means that stainless steel can still maintain its excellent physical and mechanical properties at high temperatures. 4. Corrosion resistance: When the amount of chromium atoms in steel is not less than 12.5%, the electrode potential of steel can be suddenly changed from negative potential to positive electrode potential, preventing electrochemical corrosion. 5. Stainless steel has higher density: about three times that of aluminum alloy. High density also makes it not easy to scratch, wear-resistant, and anti-fouling in daily use. It will not darken and lose its original luster over time, and it will become brighter and brighter with use. 6. Stainless steel contains chromium: Chromium has high strength and corrosion resistance, making stainless steel kitchenware easy to clean and durable in use. In the kitchen environment, kitchen equipment will often come into contact with hydrochloric acid gas, etc. A corrosion-resistant kitchenware will definitely make you handy in the commercial kitchen. 7. Good anti-permeability: acid and alkali resistance, good resistance, and high surface strength. 8. Good impact resistance: Stainless steel kitchenware has good impact resistance and high hardness; the product is not easy to deform and damage. 9. Compared with other materials: stainless steel materials are of high quality and low price. 10. Long life: Stainless steel equipment has a long service life and high protection. It belongs to the metal category and does not contain radiation and formaldehyde. The material of commercial kitchen equipment equipped in canteens, restaurants, hotels and other places must be waterproof, high temperature resistant, non-deformable, corrosion-resistant, non-mildew, anti-smoke, easy to clean, non-swelling, etc., and must also meet food hygiene standards. Although stainless steel kitchen utensils have many advantages, kitchen equipment must be used correctly, otherwise some metal elements in stainless steel will slowly accumulate in the human body. When a certain limit is reached, it will endanger human health. Well, today SHINELONG editor will share this.
