Diversity of steel

Mankind's use of steel goes back a long way in history. The origin of steel is traced back to the smelting of iron ore in ancient times. Thus, steel as a material consists mainly of iron with a small amount of carbon. When other materials are added, it becomes malleable and can be used in many applications. The material is used in a wide range of applications - whether in machinery, pumps, conveyor systems, turbines, in building construction, tools of all kinds, and also for high-quality exhaust and exhaust systems made of stainless steel.

The advantages of steel

Steel is a commonly used material for chimneys. It is characterized by its high strength, weather resistance and durability. The use of high quality steel grades and the possibility to make the chimneys to measure make them a durable and reliable choice for exhaust gas discharge in buildings and industrial facilities. We have summarized for you all the advantages of steel as a material:

Flexible, resistant and recyclable

The use of steel means that structures can be built with much less material. Modern office buildings, which can be built up to 300 meters high, would have to have meter-thick stone walls on the lower floors to support the weight of the entire structure. However, this would make the buildings so heavy that they would sink into the ground over time.

Steel properties

High hardness and durability / Best quality
Easy formability and weldability
Maximum rust and corrosion protection
Good acid resistance
Weatherproof: particularly resistant to oxidation
Visually appealing surfaces, from stainless steel look to colored coating

The Schiedel stainless steel chimneys

Today, there are thousands of grades of steel in the world. By adding different elements, alloys can be produced that can be endowed with different properties depending on the place of use. Schiedel stainless steel is also called surgical steel and is known for its very good corrosion and acid resistance. The steel is particularly resistant, has great hardness and is extremely tough. Despite these properties, steel can be easily processed with many machining methods and its strength makes it excellent for exhaust instructions. It is easier to shape and weld in the manufacturing process. Due to its many advantages, Schiedel stainless steel chimney has its excellent quality.

Precise laser technology

In the Schiedel stainless steel plants, precise laser technology is used to produce the individual sizes and dimensions from the steel plates. This creates the basis for producing precisely fitting construction elements and individual customer requirements. Subsequent paint finishes or special surfaces, different insulation thicknesses or extremely large diameters can also be manufactured on request.

Extensive stainless steel program

Schiedel's stainless steel delivery program covers the entire range of innovative flue gas and chimney systems for modern buildings such as private homes, multi-family houses, industrial and commercial buildings as well as large properties: From single- and double-walled stainless steel systems to the perfect symbiosis with ceramic flue in all temperature ranges and overpressure applications. You can rely on the perfect solution for state-of-the-art heating technology with premium quality!
