Glass fence spigot or stainless steel glass spigot is one kind of glass hardware that has a base clamped function. It is widely used in construction glass installing, swimming pools, glass pool fences, glass railing. We are stainless steel glass spigot manufacturer from China.
The materials for Casting of Stainless Steel Glass Spigot
The main materials for Casting Stainless Steel Glass spigots in our foundry are SS304, SS 316, SS 2205. SS304 Ni≥8,SS316 Ni≥10,Duplex2205 Cr≥21,high quality material includes low carbon,tough,durable,excellent resistance to corrosion,suitable for outdoor uses.
Stainless Steel Casting for Glass Spigots Advantages
1 | With stainless steel casting, a good size accuracy (CT5-CT6) and surface finish (Ra6.3) can be expected for glass spigots, and less machining or no machining will be operated. |
2 | There is a wide range of glass spigots. All these types of spider fittings can be realized by stainless steel casting with a workforce of molds, which can not be replaced by other manufacturing processes. |
3 | Stainless steel casting is the copy process by casting glass spigots separately, which is better to keep the consistency and control the quality in high production efficiency. |
Here, take SS2205 as an example. Duplex 2205 is a two-phase, ferritic, austenitic 22% chromium, 3% molybdenum, 5 to 6% nickel alloyed stainless steel. It is the most widely used duplex stainless steel casting grade and is characterized by high yield strength, doubles that of the standard austenitic stainless steel grades. It also demonstrates good fatigue strength, as well as outstanding resistance to stress corrosion cracking, crevice, pitting, erosion, and general corrosion in severe environments. So casting a glass spigot with 2205 duplex stainless steel can achieve higher strength and better mechanical properties than 304/316 stainless steel.

Stainless Steel Glass Spigot Surface Finish: Mirror Polishing or Satin Polishing
Mirror Polished Stainless Steel Glass Spigot | Satin Finished Stainless Steel Glass Spigot |
In the case of mirror polishing, it creates a reflective surface with brilliant shine. This is achieved by pre-grinding the metal to remove surface defects, and then bright-buffing the metal. The result is a smooth, reflective finish that shines even with the least bit of light. | A satin finish lacks the brilliant sheen of a mirror polish finish. This is a form of brushed metal that is created by polishing the metal with a 120 to 180 grit belt before it is softened with a lower-grit greaseless compound or abrasive pad. |
Mirror-polished stainless steel glass spigots are particularly good for outdoor applications, if only because they are so easy to clean. The fact that the surface is so smooth means that dust, dirt, and grit are easily wiped off with a clean cloth. For coarser finishes, small particles of dust and dirt can easily get caught in the surface grains, but this simply is not an issue with a mirror polish glass spigot. | Satin-finish stainless steel glass spigots have a high aesthetic value. The resulting surface has a silky matte finish without any clear grit lines or grinding scores. This is often perceived as a bit more tasteful or even more restrained than a mirror polish. |
The upside to a satin finish stainless steel glass spigot is that the surface is not reflective means that a small amount of dirt or oil will go largely undetected. In other words, you won’t have to wipe it down as often as a mirror polish Glass Spigot. |
Why stainless steel Casting glass fitting is popular?
Stainless steel is a steel alloy. It is mainly composed of iron and chromium. Stainless steel is strong, durable, resistant to heat, corrosion, oxidation, and certain environmental conditions. For the good castability of stainless steel, most stainless steel products with complex shapes are produced by the stainless steel investment casting process. The stainless steel casting process is the lost wax silica sol casting process that starts from the formation of ceramics around a wax pattern to form a shell for casting stainless steel. Once wax patterns are created, they are melted into the gate system, immersed in slurry and sand to form a layered shell. After cooling, it is replaced by molten stainless steel. The stainless steel casting will have high advantages.
Advantages of stainless steel casting.
1. Chemical properties: Chemical and electrochemical corrosion resistance are the best in steel. Second only to titanium alloy.
2, Physical properties: heat, high temperature, low-temperature resistance, ultra-low temperature.
3. Mechanical properties: According to different types of stainless steel, the mechanical properties are different. Martensitic stainless steel has high strength and hardness. It is suitable for manufacturing parts that are both corrosion resistant and require high strength and high wear resistance. Stainless steel knives, stainless steel bearings, etc.
Austenitic stainless steel is very plastic and not very strong. But corrosion resistance is the best in stainless steel. It is suitable for occasions that require very high corrosion resistance and low mechanical properties. For example, chemical plants, Fertilizer plants, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid manufacturers of equipment materials, etc. can also be used in submarines and other military industries. Ferritic stainless steel mechanical properties are moderate, the strength is not too high. However, oxidation resistance. Suitable for a variety of industrial furnace parts.
4. Process performance: Austenitic stainless steel process performance is best. Because of good plasticity, can be processed into a variety of plates, tubes, and other profiles, suitable for pressure processing. Martensitic stainless steel due to high hardness and poor process performance.
