There are many considerations that need to be qualified when specifying materials to help manage corrosion in your fluid systems. Just about every metal corrodes under certain conditions. When personnel can visually identify corrosion and know where to look for it, risk can be minimized. Better yet, when engineers can anticipate corrosion and make more informed choices in terms of materials selection system integrity, longevity of assets, performance, and safety all improve.

Swagelok Senior Product Manager, Behram Ginwalla, reviews guidelines for selecting the right material for corrosion resistance in this week’s blog.
