Industrial Steel 3D Printing. What Are the Possible Applications?
The use of 3D printing in industry has become increasingly frequent in recent years. For this type of printing is used different types of materials, and one of them is precisely the steel (of course in different formulations). You can create molds, drive pulleys for pumps or rotors for medical equipment. What materials are used […]
Boating: More About Stainless Steel Marine Hardware
As mentioned in the last week post, we want to give you some information about stainless steel marine hardware. Clamps, threaded couplings and more In the post of last Thursday we talked about many stainless steel marine hardware, such as calibrated chains, mooring shocks absorbers and much more. On boats, for example, in addition to […]
Stainless Steel Marine Hardware for Boats
Despite summer time being almost over, today we talk about stainless steel components and marine hardware for boats. For the most luxurious boats too, like yachts or super yachts. Why use stainless steel? Stainless steel is widely used for the manufacturing of boating parts and hardware. Starting from the production of boarding ladders, gangway and […]

Docking Manoeuvres – Which Marine Hardware Do You Need?
Docking (or mooring maneuvers) are maneuvers for for stabilizing and anchoring a boat in a point, usually in a port, roadsteads or at a short distance from the coast. This is possible thanks to specific elements employed to stabilize the boat. How do you make a docking? The most common docking is the ” wharfage […]
Hand Swager – How to Make Splice? And Why to Do It?
How can you join the ends of two ropes or create an eye at the end of a rope? There are two common methods: tying a knot or making a splice. Below is a brief guide to rope splicing using a hand swager. How to Make a Splice A splice is created by interweaving the […]
Types of Thread – What Elements Characterize Them?
Usually, screws, bolts and nuts have single threads. However, there are double-threaded (or triple-threaded) components that provide an advance equal to twice (or three times) the pitch, respectively. It is possible to differentiate the various types of threads required by standards for the profile shape. The latter, in fact, are intended to fulfil functional requirements […]
Metal Dusting Corrosion for Stainless Steel
As mentioned in other posts, the metals corrosion is a real chemical reactions. Briefly, they are phenomena that cause slow material deterioration in contact with the external environment. Today we will talk specifically about metal dusting corrosion. What is metal dusting corrosion? These corrosion can stand out in the dry corrosion (at high temperatures and […]
Molybdenum – How It Is Being Used
In 1781 the Swedish chemist Peter Jacob Hjelm was able to isolate the molybdenum from its oxide. In fact, this element in nature is present in “molybdenite” usually in the form of sulfide MoS₂ (similar to graphite and lead sulphide). What is molybdenum? Molybdenum is defined a transition metal. What are its characteristics? Here is […]
