Niton Alloy Analysis - Material Grade Identification
Many different grades of material appear the same, but our customers want to be 100% confident that their product has been made with the correct alloy. Northern has invested in handheld metal alloy analyzers by Niton. This technology can ensure your 316L stainless steel component wasn't made with 316. It can also check to make sure the correct welding filler material was used.
