Service recommendations must take into consideration specific environmental conditions which often have a profound influence on the nature of the corrosive service and hence on the behaviour of materials. Temperature, aeration, inhibiting or accelerating contaminates, and velocities are examples of the factors of ten encountered. Occasionally a user's experience, under identical or similar conditions, may indicate an exception to a recommendation in the table below. In such a case further investigation is advised.

Key A = Substantial resistance. Satisfactory service can be expected
B = Moderate resistance. May be used where a somewhat limited life would be acceptable
