Brushed Stainless Steel Kitchen Handles

Brushed stainless steel Kitchen Handles are a type of handle used for kitchen furniture such as cabinets and drawers. They are made of stainless steel with a brushed surface that gives them a unique texture and sheen. These handles are usually installed on cabinet doors or drawer panels to facilitate users in opening and closing the doors or drawers. Their simple and modern design is suitable for a variety of kitchen decoration styles, providing an aesthetically pleasing and practical solution.

Brushed stainless steel Kitchen Handles Features:

High Strength and Durability

Brushed Stainless Steel Kitchen Handles have excellent strength and durability. Stainless steel itself has high strength characteristics and can withstand large tension and pressure. Its tensile strength can reach 500-600 MPa, which is much higher than ordinary metal materials. This high strength makes the handles less likely to deform or damage during frequent use, ensuring long-term stability and reliability. In addition, the specially treated stainless steel surface further enhances its wear resistance and scratch resistance, and can maintain good appearance and performance even in high-intensity use environments.

Corrosion resistance

The handles show excellent corrosion resistance. Stainless steel contains elements such as chromium and nickel, which form a dense oxide film on its surface to effectively prevent oxidation and corrosion. Specifically, the chromium content is usually above 10.5% and the nickel content is around 8%. This composition ratio gives it excellent corrosion resistance. Even in a humid kitchen environment, it can resist the erosion of water vapor, grease, and acid and alkali substances, and its service life can reach more than 10 years, far exceeding ordinary metal handles.

Good thermal conductivity

Brushed Stainless Steel Kitchen Handles have good thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity of stainless steel is about 16 W/(m·K), which means it can conduct heat effectively. In a kitchen environment, when the hand touches the handle, it can quickly conduct the heat of the hand to the surrounding environment, providing a comfortable touch. In addition, in a high temperature environment, such as a cabinet near a stove, the handle can effectively dissipate heat to prevent the surface temperature from being too high, thereby avoiding the risk of burns.

Fine surface treatment

The handle adopts an advanced surface treatment process to present a delicate brushed texture. This brushed treatment not only enhances the aesthetics of the product, but also has practical functions. The brushed texture can reduce the adhesion of fingerprints and stains and keep the surface clean. At the same time, the depth and spacing of the texture are precisely controlled, generally between 0.05-0.1 mm, making cleaning simple, just wipe it gently with a damp cloth to restore the brightness.

Accurate size control

During the manufacturing process of the handle, the size control is extremely precise. The product is 11-3/4 inches in length, 3/8 inches in width, 1-7/16 inches in projection, and 11-11/32 inches in center to center. These precise dimensions ensure that the handles fit perfectly on a variety of cabinets and drawers when installed, providing a secure installation. In addition, the 10mm rod diameter is strictly controlled within a tolerance of ±0.1mm, ensuring the strength and compatibility of the handles.

Good elasticity and toughness

Brushed Stainless Steel Kitchen Handles have good elasticity and toughness. The elastic modulus of stainless steel is approximately 193 kN/mm², which means that when subjected to external forces, the handles can produce elastic deformation and return to their original shape after the external force is removed. This feature makes it less likely to produce permanent deformation under frequent tension and pressure, ensuring stability and reliability for long-term use. At the same time, its toughness index is usually between 50-70 J/cm², which enables it to absorb energy when impacted and reduce the risk of breakage.

Environmental protection and sustainability

The handle is made of stainless steel and has good environmental performance and sustainability. Stainless steel is a recyclable material with a recycling rate of more than 90%. During the production process, the impact on the environment is reduced by optimizing the process and using environmentally friendly coatings. In addition, its long service life reduces the frequency of replacement, thereby reducing resource consumption and waste generation. Every ton of stainless steel handles produced can reduce carbon emissions by about 0.8 tons compared to ordinary plastic handles, which is in line with modern environmental protection concepts.

Diverse design options

Brushed Stainless Steel Kitchen Handles offer a variety of design options to meet the needs of different users. In addition to the standard bent rod design, there are also a variety of lengths, diameters and shapes to choose from. Its design flexibility allows customization according to cabinet size and style, ensuring harmony with the overall kitchen design. In addition, the surface treatment process of the handle can be further adjusted, such as adjusting the density and direction of the brushed texture to achieve different visual effects and meet personalized needs.
