Material Composition | Industrial machinery, marine equipment | Industry: Carbon steel (ASTM A36, 250 MPa tensile) Base: SS 304 (18% Cr, 8% Ni, 500 MPa ▲) Advanced: SS 316 (2% Mo, 600 MPa ▲▲) | Base resists general corrosion; Advanced withstands chloride-rich environments (e.g., seawater) | Industry standard prone to rust; Base may corrode in saltwater without protection |
Environmental Compliance | EU market entry, eco-conscious projects | Industry: Basic EPR (Germany only) Base: EPR Germany Packing Advanced: Dual EPR (Germany & France) ▲ | Advanced meets stricter EU regulations for packaging waste ▲ | Base limited to single-country compliance; Industry lacks modern EPR standards |
Mechanical Strength | Heavy-duty lifting, construction | Industry: 450 MPa (ASTM A36) Base: 500 MPa ▲ (ASTM A370) Advanced: 600 MPa ▲▲ | Base 11% stronger than industry; Advanced 33% stronger for extreme loads | Industry standard may fail under prolonged heavy stress |
Corrosion Resistance | Marine, chemical processing | Industry: 200hrs salt spray (ASTM B117) Base: 500hrs ▲ Advanced: 1000hrs ▲▲ | Base lasts 2.5× longer than industry; Advanced 5× longer in corrosive environments | Industry unsuitable for harsh chemicals or saltwater exposure |
Surface Finish | Aesthetic applications, industrial | Industry: Matte finish (non-specialized) Base: Plain finish Advanced: Custom coatings (e.g., epoxy) ▲ | Advanced offers specialized finishes for anti-slip or UV resistance ▲ | Base lacks decorative options; Industry finish may scratch easily |
Customization Options | Special projects, tailored equipment | Industry: Standard sizes only Base: Limited customization (size) Advanced: Full customization (size, shape, finish) ▲▲ | Advanced meets unique design needs (e.g., non-standard diameters) ▲▲ | Base restricts design flexibility; Industry offers no customization |
