Modern engines employ a casting for the NGV which is more stable during natural heat cycling.
Related QuestionsStainless SteelStainless steels are a family of steels that are resistant to corrosion (rusting) and elevated temperature. They must contain at least 10.5 % chromium. The chromium reacts with the oxygen in the air to form an invisible, protective chrome-oxide surface layer. This layer helps to prevent “staining” (rusting) of the surface. This does not mean that stainless steel will never rust. There are many different stainless steels with unique chemical compositions.Related Questions

What are the common types of stainless steel?
Frequently Asked Questions about Steel for Wire ProductsA1: Most common are austenitic stainless steels, grades 304, 316, and 317. These have the highest corrosion resistance. These are non-magnetic and can by hardened only by cold work. (Annealed 300-series stainless steels are not magnetic, but they may become magnetic after cold working.) A2: Next-most common are ferritic stainless steels, grades 430 and 434. These are magnetic and can be hardened by cold work. The price is lower than that of 304SS due to the lower amount of Nickel.
