NOTE: The table above lists typical features and applications of all “OMAL” products. Nevertheless, if unusual situations occur (i.e. special applications, contacts with particular fluids, extraordinary pressure or temperature conditions, ...) the elements which determine corrosion and abrasion might change and, as a consequence, metal performances might change, too. It is always the customer who has to choose the right material; however, our technical department is willing to meet all customers requests.
