Re: Stainless Exhaust Failure
We used to use 304 and 316 alloys for chemical laboratory countertops and equipment enclosures. Reasonable choice except for exposure to hydrochloric acid. Those alloys were just eaten up by chlorides. I’m not sure what alloy Aries uses but road salt is a chloride…
You can also see that same issue in stainless steel sinks when used around coastal environments and salt air.
