Metal Disc Versatile Industrial Component

The discs are made with different materials and designs depending on their use in industrial work. For corrosion resistant applications, stainless steel might be used. If an application requires lightweight structures, aluminum is chosen. For applications with high strength requirements, high carbon steel is the metal of choice. These metal discs serve multiple purposes and are used in different pumps, compressors, and power-generating machines. In a pump, for example, the metal disc is used as an impeller. The shape and material properties decide the efficiency of the pump. With regard to industrial settings, the design of the metal disc is also made considering fluid flow, mechanical stress, and even the impact of wear.
