Applications
CN7MS is used for pump and valve castings in chemical-processing and pharmaceutical equipment, with marine uses also reported by foundries. Other cast components used in this material family include pump casings, impellers, valve bodies and covers. Typical settings include chemical and pharmaceutical processing, pulp-and-paper plants and selected water-handling systems.
Suitability for a particular acid, concentration or temperature remains grade- and process-specific.
