What is CG8M Stainless Steel ?
CG8M alloy is a kind of austenitic steel alloy containing molybdenum. Compared with ordinary stainless steel, it has better chemical resistance. In addition,
This stainless steel has high fracture stress strength and excellent ductility at high temperature.
Because of its good chemical resistance, this stainless steel is often used in the manufacture of synthetic fibers, petrochemical industry, textile and papermaking.
