Ten Common Misconceptions About Corten Bbq Grill

Ten common misconceptions about weathering steel grills, the following are detailed answers:

1. Weathering steel grills require no maintenance  :

• Misconception: Some people think that weathering steel does not require any maintenance because of its corrosion resistance.
• Fact : Although weathering steel has strong corrosion resistance, it still needs regular cleaning and inspection to ensure its performance and appearance.

2. Weathering steel grills never rust:

• Misconception : It is believed that weathering steel grills will not rust under any circumstances.
• Fact : Weathering steel may still rust in certain environments (such as high humidity or salt spray environments), but its rust process is slower, and the formed rust layer has a protective effect.

3. The color of weathering steel grills will never change :

• Misconception : Think that the color of weathering steel grills is permanent.
• Fact  : The color of weathering steel will gradually change over time, and this change is natural and slow, giving it a unique appearance.

4. Weathering steel grill can resist all corrosion :

• Misconception: The belief that weathering steel can resist all types of corrosion.
• Fact : Weathering steel is mainly resistant to atmospheric corrosion, but its resistance to acidic, alkaline or other chemical corrosion is relatively weak.

5. Weathering steel grills do not require rust inhibitors:

• Misconception: Think that weathering steel grills do not need to use rust inhibitors.
• Fact : Although weathering steel itself has corrosion resistance, in some extreme environments, the use of rust inhibitors can further enhance its corrosion resistance.

6. Rust layer of weathering steel grill will fall off  :

• Misunderstanding : Think that the rust layer formed by weathering steel will easily fall off.
• Fact : The rust layer formed by weathering steel is more stable and will not fall easily, but a small amount of loss may be formed in the early stage.

7.Weathering steel grills can use acid cleaners  :

• Misconception: The idea that you can use acid cleaners to clean weathering steel grills.
• Fact: Acidic cleaners may damage the protective layer of weathering steel, it is recommended to use neutral or special cleaners.

8. Weathering steel grills have the same weather resistance as other steels  :

• Misconception: The weatherability of weathering steel is thought to be the same as that of other ordinary steels.
• Fact : The weather resistance of weathering steel is significantly better than that of ordinary steel, especially in outdoor and harsh environments.

9. Weathering steel grills do not need to consider environmental factors :

• Misconception : It is believed that weathering steel grills do not need special consideration in any environment.
• Fact: Although weathering steel has strong weather resistance, it is still necessary to pay attention to the impact of the environment on it in extreme environments (such as seaside or industrial pollution areas).

10. The appearance of weathering steel grills will affect their weather resistance  :

• Misconception : It is believed that the appearance of weathering steel (such as painting) will reduce its weather resistance.
• Fact : Proper exterior treatment (such as painting) can further enhance its weather resistance, but improper treatment may destroy its protective layer.

The differences between weathering steel grills and traditional grills mainly include the following aspects:

1. Material: Weathering steel grill using weathering steel material, with high corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, can be stable in harsh environment, not easy to rust or corrosion. Traditional grills usually use plain steel or iron, which are susceptible to oxidation and corrosion.
2. Service life: Due to the characteristics of weathering steel, weathering steel grills usually have a longer service life than traditional grills. It can better withstand various climatic conditions such as rain, humidity and temperature changes.
3. Heat conductivity: Weather-resistant steel grills have better heat conductivity, can heat food faster, and maintain a uniform temperature distribution. This helps to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the barbecue.
4. Appearance and design: Weathering steel grills usually have a modern design and appearance, more stylish and beautiful. Traditional barbecue ovens may be more practical and relatively simple in appearance.
