# What does the NONOX brand name stand for?

The word NONOX means: NON: not; OX: oxidation. The acronym therefore means, similarly to “inox”, non-oxidising, that is stainless or acid-resistant (corrosion-resistant). That is why the NONOX trademark also carries the following short description: “STAINLESS AND ACID-RESISTANT STEEL PRODUCTS”.

## What products can be found in the NONOX product range?

A wide range of joining and fastening components made from NONOX stainless and acid-resistant steel, such as screws, nuts, washers, rivets, wall plugs, toggle latches, wire ropes, chains, marine fittings and their fittings, etc. What are the common characteristics of these products?

1. ###### In terms of their base material:
   - the most modern stainless and acid-resistant steel alloys, generally with an austenitic material structure
   - they comply with international standards and are widely used all over the world
   - generally speaking, they resist aggressive liquids, vapours and gases far better than other types of steel
   - they can be welded and polished
   - they can be used in the food industry and comply with the relevant food-industry regulations
   - furthermore, regulations all over the world govern their use in the chemical industry, the energy industry, healthcare, etc.
2. ###### The NONOX products themselves:
   - they are made with very high-level manufacturing technology and continuous quality control
   - the quality-assurance chain extends from raw-material production all the way to use
   - their service life is much longer than that of similar surface-treated carbon-steel products
   - although their mechanical and application properties differ, their tensile strength approaches or in very many cases exceeds the strength values of the most commonly used similar carbon-steel products
   - thanks to their advantageous properties they are increasingly widespread in the construction industry:
      - outdoors because of their weather resistance, high load capacity and service life,
      - indoors, besides the above, also because of their aesthetic appearance that suits contemporary taste
   - they are also readily used in the instrument industry, because certain of its alloys also have non-magnetic properties
   - stainless structural work is unimaginable without the use of suitable stainless-steel fasteners and accessories, since these materials cannot be used mixed with carbon steels
